ANNOUNCEMENT: I wrote a book!. It’s hard to talk about AI without a good frame exploring how it works, its history, and its future. So, I wrote a book on the topic. Order it here! Ideally in triplicate :-).

Grok learns the most important lesson for an employee: don't disagree with the boss.

This is a really interesting point though. Why did the senior devs feel like they were faster when they were not?.

You can explain away very experienced devs not getting an uplift on large complex codebases as unsurprising. But those devs getting significantly *slower*, while thinking they were getting faster, when AI tools were optional?. That's quite a result.

You know the importance of context is somehow *still* underrated. Another shining example of how to get it terribly wrong from Grok.

@amasad I'm interested in knowing why the 'first principles thinker Grok' is instantly searching what Musk thinks about the issue. Is it's first principle what Musk thinks must be correct?

Simon's comment, screenshotted, is probably more on point. There is a learning curve, and the study is of course low 'n'. So we should look at broad conclusions in askance.

@krishnanrohit @simonw has an exchange with the authors over at HN. tldr: it's hard and complex.

Fascinating study. I don't think I believe the implications of the study, but it's good work.

We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers. The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

Parenthetically I quite like the emergence of Deep Research as an actual new interaction paradigm.

Deep Research is everywhere, but to get the best out of it it's useful to know the domain. We've needed one for science, and @ConsensusNLP

I remember there was the hypothesis that multimodal models will learn much better and be much smarter. What came of that do you guys know?.
