Maybe the denigration of the award process should be the basis for revoking the award in question

Surely there is an embedding for emacs giving it full elisp control

Unfortunately any pro-AI viewpoint, no matter how uncontroversial, will be immediately dismissed and down voted here. Doesn't make it not true.

The proof is really in the pudding, isn't it? I don't see a wave of successful vibe-coded startups in the market yet. That's kind of the benchmark for whether this stuff actually does in practice what the AI-hypemen claim it can.

Rather the opposite. A vibe-coded startup cannot survive if it can be trivially duplicated. The proof will be in observing the inverse phenomenon; (pure) software companies disappearing.

Generally economists say response is necessary at over 4% unemployment. It doesn't take a big swing to unsettle the entire economy.

I guess my point is that even if you think AI's displacement of workforce is vastly overblown, be scared of 5% labor impacts.

I've actually never heard a prediction for a "self driving car in every drive way within 5 years" and I can't think of a single context where that claim wouldn't be immediately ridiculed.

They are in some people's driveway. That's the remarkable part anyway

No one is within a decade of Tesla.

There are no other vehicles that can take you as easily to the grocery store as they can across the country.

Buying another brand for me at this point would be like picking up a part time job as a driver. No thank you lol. FSD is all the mote that they need.

I can't tell if you're joking or serious. I recently rented a tesla on a vacation back east, and the nightmare that is charging cannot be erased. And FSD of course does not work (yet... they've been at it for 10+ years, maybe someday, who knows?). My rented 2025 MY with full self driving could barely keep itself between 2 white-painted lines!

I assume this post is a troll, 'no one is within a decade of Tesla' -- are you serious ? Have a look at Rivian, which is preparing to make the Cybertruck even more of a laughing stock.

I own a 2023 model Y and have never had charging issues, and use FSD successfully every day.

There's a lot of speculation here.

The actual facts of this reporting could just as likely be explained by vertical integration, very typical of Tesla, or of a supplier shift due to absurdly high tariffs.

100% agree. It's clearest to see in China. IP has been transformed from a mechanism to maintain competition and into a mechanism to maintain market control.

Given that market control is one of the few ultimate gating factors that makes you thrive or die as a company, it’s no surprise that anything that could be used as a mechanism to maintain market control would be.

The US industrial revolution was from Samuel Slater memorizing detailed plans of British textile mills and their machines and bringing them here.

To be fair, millions could be hundreds of millions.

Sure. And you are inches tall.

What do these million dollar salary employees at Gmail do?

Three things, not all of which any specific employee does: 1. Fix security issues 2. Create “features” in order to seem useful that the world was better without 3. Rest upon laurels of gmail from 15 years ago

Make Google multiple millions by improving ad delivery and conversion within Gmail. Probably by also helping Google land big corporate or public contracts, but last I checked most of the money was made via ads in the free tier of GMail.
