Reading some of the takes about Peter here and on X feels less like criticism and more like people shadowboxing their own hatred towards AI. Maybe good to remember that Peter is a real person and one that I know quite well. The criticism thrown his direction from some people is heavily misplaced.
ich bin als alter weisser mann gefestigt genug zu sagen: Star Fleet Academy is cute and good actually, fuck off with your tired gate keeping.
For what’s it worth, this discussion did open my eyes towards this issue a lot which definitely was in my blind spot. Definitely something my brain will mull over quite a bit.
Yeah I don’t think I agree with that at all but I’m also quite sure that no discussion about this would change each others mind. 🤷♂️
Clippyclawd? I’d try it
I think it’s tricky. It really started as a little hobby project a few weeks back and just *exploded* in popularity. I don’t think it’s so much as the care isn’t on display, just that there wasn’t time yet to put that care in while it exploded.
Don’t think the incredible hype right now is helping it.
It is weird. And I did fall into the clawdbot hole for a week and it definitely did bad things to my brain.
I primarily think it’s too clunky and unreliable so far - typical LLM stuff. I’m still using it and I think it can be used in a way that is helpful and not overbearing. We will see.
Ok, that makes sense. My argument would be that it’s at least an open source project instead of Meta shoving it down your throat. IMHO it’s inevitable that we’re going there, just a question of when and who.
But yeah, totally understand where you’re coming from now, thanks for explaining!
First, true. But I’m not quite sure how anyone is pushing anyone towards harmful behaviors? Also, not trying to be an internet troll, I think I really don’t understand?
You don’t have to like it or use it, of course, but I promise there are no bad intentions behind it.
Just to push back a little - I know Peter who started it. He’s a real good dude.
Don’t think the plan was for this to become as big and as hype-y. Just a little hobby project that resonated with people, seeing how far these LLMs can be pushed.
It is starting to look like MCP is the new SOAP.
Brrrr stop putting these thoughts into the world or they’ll come true
Agreeing, but also trying to merge my AI loving circles of influence. Seen/looked at clawd.bot yet?
Ok that honestly sounds amazing. Thank you for the explanation and for showing this off!
Very little.
Im usually just lurking but what is happening?! Haha. This seems nuts.
Numbers! Make them go up!
Zumindest *sehr* kreativ? Phew.
What the what
Well that’s nice but have you fixed my one very specific problem that I need solved *now* yet?!?
Yes, bad.
I can save people so much time.
One thing I am always reminded that Europe does unambiguously better than the US: bread. You can find bread as good as anything in Europe in the states but it’s hard. Every country in continental Europe I’ve ever been to makes high quality bread stupidly cheap and available.
Whatever you figure out, take me with you
Ok that’s just adorable
I've written up how I approach "agentic engineering" for real-world codebases & tasks.
TL;DR: Treat LLMs like shitty computers you program with natural language, not chatbots you beg for code.
