>I generate between 10-100k lines of code per day these days.

That’s absolute nonsense.



He said "generate". This is trivial to do. And probably this is what Amodei meant when he said 90% of code would be AI by now. It doesn't meant that generated code is actually useful and gets checked in.


Trivial is a pretty big word in this context. Expanding an idea into some sort of code is indeed a matter of waiting. The idea, the prompt, the design of the overall workflow to leverage the capabilities of llms/agents in a professional/long-lived codebase context is far from trivial, imo.


You can look at my GitHub, and I stream full unedited sessions on https://youtube.com/@program-with-ai


I tuned in to a random spot at a random episode, didn't see any coding but did get to hear you say:

"I'm a person who hates art now...I never want to see art again. All I want to see is like, AI stuff. That's how bad it's gotten. Handmade? nuh-uh. Handmade code? ... anything by humans, just over. I'm just gonna watch pixels."

I watched a little more but was, uh, not impressed.


I'm always a very serious person while I wait for people to join the stream. I'm sorry you weren't impressed, but tbf that's not really my goal, I just like building things and yapping about it.


I'm not sure why you bother yapping about it yourself. It's too human. Just give an LLM a list of lowercase bullet points and have an AI voiceover read them. It'll be 10x more efficient.
