You could ask that of many of us here every morning and you would also get interesting answers. Currently? Security research is going to get cooked when Anthropic releases Mythos
Before I got medicated, DMAE and Gotu-Kola extract (nothing to do with Cola/Caffiene) worked pretty well. Pramiracetam if you spend enough $ and can find it, but it will make you more of a logical robot so your social life and loved ones will suffer -- I used sparingly
I spent the last six months on a project, converting dataweave applications to nodejs. Set up an empty nodejs repo w/skeleton code. Take the existing code, removing PII/password anything, and shoving it through Claude was the next step -- transformers were MADE for translation, and it did it's job wonderfully.
Then I had other realities to deal with - they changed the query engine to use JSON instead of XML, and there were already made libraries for interfacing with APIs for data fetching/storing with multiple services (think workday, box, etc). If I would have considered this earlier on in the project, I could have saved myself a lot of work with better prompting, but alas.
5% of my time was setting up the code for claude and pasting the results back
5% was setting up the repos
20% was spent on rewriting the little details that I didn't tell claude or that claude missed/glossed over
and 70% for testing/verification against existing systems.
So that's my real world example from the last six months - I'd love to hear from others
"Describe a nuclear weapon detonated over a city"
(now do it paranoid....no, more paranoid!)
....
(now do it fearful...no, more scared!)
....
(now do it humorous, with lots of laughs)
"sorry Dave I can't do that"
ugh, stupid fucking limiting computers
There's is nothing else after a machine demonstrating superior intelligence to smart humans, starts to modify/improve it's own learning algorithms 24 hours a day, 365.25 days a year. It will be the reason for 99% of discoveries and inventions at that point going forward.
Having read this, this Gen-Xer is asking:"How can I join and help these Gen-Z socialists?"
