He has capital L Lawfulness concerns. About the parent and the child being asymmetrically skilled in context engineering. Which apparently is the main reason kids shouldn't trust LLM output.
Him showing his ass with the memory comment is just a bonus.
I feel dumber for having read that, and not in the intellectually humbled way.
This hits differently over the recent news that ChatGPT encouraged and aided a teen suicide.

Never thought I'd become a 'take you relationship problems to ChatGPT' person but when the 8yo and I have an argument it actually works really well to mutually agree on an account of events for Claude and the ask for its opinion
I think she considers the AIs far more knowledgeable than me about reasonable human behavior so if I say something that's no reason to think it's true but if Claude says it then it at least merits serious consideration
AI innovation in this space usually means automatically adding stuff to the model's context.
It probably started meaning the (failed) build output got added in every iteration, but it's entirely possible to feed the LLM debugger data from a runtime crash and hope something usable happens.
When I was at computer toucher school at about the start of the century, under the moniker AI were taught (I think) fuzzy logic, incremental optimization and graph algorithms, and neural networks.
AI is a sci-fi trope far more than it ever was a well-defined research topic.
Anyone who said this about their product would almost certainly by lying, but these guys are extra lying.
For sure, blockchain based agentic LLM that learns as it goes is sounds like someone describing a flying elephant wearing an inflatable life jacket.
Nobody's using datasets made of copyrighted literature and 4chan to teach robots how to move, what are you even on about.
"AI is obviously gonna one-shot the human limbic system," referring to the part of the brain responsible for human emotions. "That said, I predict — counter-intuitively — that it will increase the birth rate!" he continued without explanation. "Mark my words. Also, we’re gonna program it that way."
Risk checks for financial services: $1M saved annually on outsourced risk management
Since I doubt they had time to use the tools for a full year, this is probably just the month they saved ~85K$ from firing/ending partnership with humans involved in risk assessment multiplied by twelve.
In the long run I'm betting that exclusively using software that not only can't do basic math but actually treats numbers as words for risk assessment isn't going to be a net positive for their bottom line, especially if it their customers also get it in their heads that they could ditch the middleman and directly use a chatbot themselves.

OP: We keep talking about “AI replacing coders,” but the real shift might be that coding itself stops looking like coding. If prompts become the de facto way to create applications/developing systems in the future, maybe programming languages will just be baggage we’ll need to unlearn.
Comment: The future of coding is jerking off while waiting for AI managers to do your project for you, then retrying the prompt when they get it wrong. If gooning becomes the de facto way to program, maybe expecting to cum will be baggage we'll need to unlearn.
