@juergen_hubert And you are among the few enlightened who don't fall for it. Got it.
Any way to falsify that hypothesis?

@juergen_hubert Well, Opus 4.6 came out on the 5th of February.
@juergen_hubert Do you honestly believe that this is just because of "addictive properties" of AI?
@juergen_hubert Well, how recent?
@juergen_hubert And by "these new technologies" I mean things like Opus 4.6 or ChatGPT 5.2. Not something from two years ago.
@juergen_hubert And have they actually tried these new technologies, or is this just another case of "nothing runs faster than my horse"?
@juergen_hubert Well, if you feel you are not qualified to talk about it, then why are you talking about it?
@growfediverse @juergen_hubert
Dude. I propose to watch a (free) video that explains it. If one does not believe the video, what other option is there than to try for yourself? Unless you want to wait 3-6 months until open source models can do the same that things like opus4.6 can, and have proper hardware available, paying is the only way to try. That's just a fact.
@juergen_hubert If you don't trust Videos, try Claude Code with Opus 4.6 yourself. But that will cost you 20 Euros or so.
@juergen_hubert It's an hour of youtube, and you can stop any time. But not even trying to understand what's happening, how does that benefit you?
@juergen_hubert https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pey9u_ANXZM gives a good overview how people develop software these days.
@juergen_hubert Hypes usually die once people see the hyped thing. You refuse to see the hyped thing.
@juergen_hubert You choose to stay blind.
@juergen_hubert I suggest, again, you try it yourself to see what people mean when they say coding by humans doesn't happen any more. Anthropic's Opus 4.6, which just came out this week, will humble anyone.
@juergen_hubert Claude Code is just one year old, I doubt anyone decided to write papers about it. But you hear from everywhere how they are no longer coding themselves, but using LLM's for coding.
So do I.
@juergen_hubert That said: Hardware prices will go down again as scientists figure out more efficient ways to implement AI, and hardware better suited to the tasks becomes widely available.
@juergen_hubert Now you are grasping for straws.
This technology is phenomenal and very useful. Now, not every use is maybe a wise allocation of resources. The talk of a "bubble" might be about some of the companies, but the AI technology itself is clearly extremely useful even in its present, rather early stage.
@juergen_hubert I am not sure I understand what you are saying. Do you believe coding agents are a productivity leap, or do you not?
@kichae I see no contradiction to what I wrote. Coding agents are so far a massive productivity increase, not more, not less. But that's not a bubble. That's progress.
