OpenAI got tired of going after startups, now is the turn of Google to be disrupted. Funny how Apple’s event didn’t steal the spotlight with its underwhelming release of a thinner iPad.

Open source LLMs are non-negotiable for the future of AI. Diversity in ideas and access to technology across the globe is essential for driving progress and ensuring that AI benefits everyone, not just a privileged few. We cannot sacrifice the greater good for the comfort or

Ever thought to yourself you just lack discipline to be extraordinary? I have, but this is working for me lately:. Step 1: Adjust your self talk, be more compassionate. Step 2: Reserve small blocks of time (5-10mins) to focus on 1 task only. Let me know if it works for you too!.

“Brainwashing” is a term used to exaggerate and discredit something that is indeed happening behind the scenes on mainstream media. They call it “Perception Hijacking”, and by not being aware of this, others can manipulate how you feel towards the society and the world.

The rise of AI will redefine what "clean code" means, as well as the responsibilities of the Software Engineers. These are my predictions:. As AI becomes capable of writing code in its own non-human-readable language, traditional notions of code readability and maintainability

@KevinNaughtonJr On one side, tweets like these motivate people to code who were too intimidated by our field. But on the other, everyone acts surprised when after going through tutorials and courses, they can’t crack the interviews. Coding doesn’t equal Software Engineering.

@marianorenteria En todo Silicon Valley está habiendo esa tendencia. Lo único que detiene a algunas empresas de hacerlo obligatorio es que varios directivos realmente odian la idea y no pueden obligar a sus subordinados de cumplir el retorno si ellos mismos no quieren hacerlo.

@DeeperThrill I’ve been using it to help me create an iOS app since march and I’ve gone through 3 iterations of it since. No doubt this last version of my app has taken me way more prompts to get the results I got months ago.
In ChatGPT 4, something I could do with 1 prompt now takes me 2-3 instead. So I learned how to get more accurate answers again. This is the prompt I run after going back and forth with ChatGPT and getting the right answer. [Short thread]🧵.

@OneJKMolina One of the books I read describes this phenomena as “knowledge obesity”. Each book and course contains “calories” that, until assimilated, their un-applied knowledge is actually detrimental to the owner. I can’t remember the exact source of this analogy but is a great one.

@mikaelpizzi @karlgpg Razones para no promocionarte como Jr:. - Otros candidatos no lo hacen (aunque lo sean).- Las empresas tech contratan quienes más inspiren confianza (Jr = inexpertos).- Aunque tengas 1 año o 7 años, igual necesitas tiempo para aprender desde 0 como trabajan en la nueva empresa.

OpenAI’s influence in the world is a risk that must be mitigated now. Remember, AI represents a singular perspective, synthesizing only the most popular search results, biased and filtered by the provider. It's critical to diversify and support competition in the AI market.

Frontend Engineering is quicksand. It is the most at-risk job position in tech today, yet it is the comfort zone of many Jr. devs. If you know a Frontend developer, be a hero and convince them to try Backend or Infra before is too late.

@AlexHormozi There is wisdom to be found in many places if we approach others with compassion. Perhaps the single person offers thoughts on self-love, the poor person on gratitude, the unfit on self-acceptance. We must quiet our urge to criticize, and listen. Wisdom takes many forms.

@daboigbae I think future apps won’t be coded with human-legible instructions. I bet machines can tackle software engineering challenges better by them creating their own scripting language. Ai-generated code will be good when we stop expecting it to be human readable.
