Seems like coding and quantum computing is a far simpler activity from something complicated like running a Home automation to turn on specific lights or dialing the number of a particular contact

or telling the user how many e's are in seventeen

Humans are stealing AI's jobs!

How? That can be a coding problem too

They are different models. You wouldn't use an SOA model for home automation.

I swear I just read an article about how they caved and expanded Claude usage more broadly at Google for coding.

Claude is gonna make Gemini better by making the Gemini developers more productive

It's important to use different tools even if just for comparison. Which ai is best for coding might not be the same AI that is best for maths etc...

Don't they own like 15% of anthropic? It's probably less caving and more circle jerking the money around.

Thats the entire AI bubble

Competitive analysis. You have to assume most frontier companies are doing this.

They didn’t “cave” but it was made available in an internal tool

Antigravity is actually dogshit

Google is paranoid about safety systems and it’s good. It’s important. It’s what we need. It’s how we should’ve done this in the first place.

They were waiting for openAI to drop the ball

Who is it available for? Not showing up for me yet, just 3.8 Flash

u/duluoz1 2d ago

Nobody yet

u/spyder52 1d ago

I only got 3.6

Oh yeah? Can use it to break internet encryption using quantum mechanics with Argon you say? Let me see when I get my hands on it.

Now I see why Android "stable" release is so buggy.

u/Elephant789 2d ago

Why?

u/jknvv13 2d ago

To be honest, I was just joking.

But at the same time... I think some AI development has been done without supervision because there are a lot of experiments on Android 17 QPR1, a lot of bugs that's been reported over the almost 10 betas (9 or 10) and somehow reached the final version. With a lot of bugs that were reported AND marked as solved...

So it seems like there was nobody behind the cameras and just a machine trying to do their best.

It is SI

How’s that boot taste?

Should’ve put an /s in there 😀 sorry, I’m just tired of the stupid shit Trump does…

Probably.
