Disgruntled are the Crowdstrike customers that had to deal with the outage. These employees have a lot of reputation to lose for coming forward. Crowstrike is a disgrace of a company and many others like it are doing the same behaviors but they just haven't gotten caught yet. Software development has become a disgrace when the bottom line of squeezing margins to please investors took over.
Can we just push LLMs aside for a minute and look at the whole AI models from outside the box? The feeling I'm getting is that the obsession with LLMs has outpaced its usefulness.
Stop pretending that companies care if you spend 40 hours or if you do 80% of the work. The majority of the time they look at you as a cost per unit and make decisions based on that.
I just saw the best lead java developers be laid off after 20 years with the product because he was overpaid salary wise when compared to 10 other contractors from India. All that tribal knowledge is gone and never coming back. Mind you this person could run laps around all 10 of these contractors but corporate America only cares about vanity metrics and looks at employees as cogs in a machine.
Your model is only as good as the environment and data it's trained with.
Gaming physics change all the time. I find it hard this "generalist AI agent" can play with a constant shifting gravity in XYZ for example. It does however offer a good training space for real world where gravity and other physics mechanics are consistent.
I hate to keep repeating this but if I can run local LLMs or AI models in Linux why do I need Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta products?
Google search, social, even shopping become obsolete. If there's an AGI equivalent model that can help me get through my day, maybe even build, cook and everything else DIY humans need.
AI is Google's cryptonite. A lot of their products become obsolete with local or cloud AI. Search for one becomes a better experience without the ads and better more elaborate answers to the search question.
