On: Claude Advanced Tool Use

[lukan]

The frustrating part is, with all the hype it is hard to see, what are really the working ways right now. I refused to go your way to live on the edge and just occasionally used ChatGPT for specific tasks, but I do like the idea to get AI assistants for the old codebases and gave the modern ways a shot just now again, but it still seems messy and I never know if I am simply not doing it right, or if there simply is no right way and sometimes things work and sometimes they don't. I guess I wait some more time, before also invest in building tools, that will be obsolete in some weeks or months.

This is the cost of bleeding edge... in our internal company ai slack channel people ask what is the best method to do something every week.

The answer is always something like: "As of today, do a,b,c. But this will be different next week/month".

I like it, we are at the forefront of this technology and years from now we will be telling stories to kids on how it used to be.

I think the stories told about this time in particular will be the same as the stories told about any boom/bust cycle: a frenzied feeling of progress which resulted in a tiny handful of people getting outrageously wealthy, whilst the vast majority of people and society as a whole loses a whole lot of time, money and dignity.
