Some times I feel like a lot of people in tech independently go through the same things right around the same time with few people writing/sharing about it.
I am also creating this and enjoyed the post and comments all going through the same thing :)
This is a double edged sword for me, I've dabbled with the Antigravity CLI and it is better but I got a lot of LLM use out of google's chaotic decentralized quotas.
gemini-cli had it's own quota, antigravity had it's own quota, and ai studio had it's own free tier quota and I managed to make use of all of them super cheaply.
Now they're finally unifying everything and cutting down, which is less of a cognitive load to keep track of quotas but also fewer benefits
The amount of RAM needed for this is crazy to think about. And then there's Youtube...
Silver lining of current RAM prices is that it changes the cost-benefit analysis of improving underlying software which (hopefully) gets implemented in open source.
Not really, this is just effectively a new supply side platform for advertisers. Retail companies will just allocate a percentage of their marketing budget to OAI instead of Google/Meta
I am still surprised many people trust him. The board's (justified) decision to fire him was so awfully executed that it lead to him having even more slack
I've heard it's only on mobile? I was using gemini for work on desktop for at least 6 hours yesterday (definitely over 100 back and forths) for work and did not get hit with any rate limits
Either way, Google's transparency with this is very poor - I saw the limits from a VP's tweet
That's a separate problem which affects small to large players alike (e.g. ScarJo).
Small companies interests are aligned with Meta as they are now on an equal footing with large incumbent players. They can now compete with a similarly sized team at a big tech company instead of that team + dozens of AI scientists
Just for another perspective, I've worked at a few companies including LinkedIn as a backend developer and I think LinkedIn is probably around 70-80th percentile in code quality.
There was significant emphasis on code quality at least on the team I was on, and an ever improving culture.
I did work on one voyager task though and I remember it being a nightmare
Cook's best trait is being reactive very well. What he lacks in the Jobs "magic", he has in the ability to react to industry incredibly well and do better than most.
I have little doubt Apple is going to be a major player in AI, especially in the non-Nvidia hardware space after playing around with MLX
