Now we see where these ai foundation companies are heading. They are literally building the next operating system to replace the old gatekeepers, similarly like netscape tried to do with microsoft in the 90's

Surely this won't be abused

Claude has been so bad lately, I started writing code by hand again.

The slop spreads like wildfire.

Wow, that's like...a huge deal. It's a major feat of engineering when some software can create and edit files. That's like half of CRUD! Seems like they are really advanced, like magic!

They buried the lede so deeply in this one. Claude now has an entire Linux container running Python and node.js and able to install extra packages. It's about way more then just "editing files" - it's equivalent to ChatGPT Code Interpreter. https://simonwillison.net/2025/Sep/9/claude-code-interpreter...

Its a really bad headline

It's a really overhyped product.

Great. Now we can prompt Claude to create files that are actually malware payloads and executable scripts to infect more machines!

Malware writers are rejoicing!

One step closer to mass unemployment, yay!

alvis 9/9/2025||

nay. When you use claude long enough, you'd find yourself spending more time refactoring than coding lol

fragmede 9/9/2025||

the fuck you doing that by hand for?

myko 9/9/2025||

because the models will fuck it up :)

they're great for spitting out a lot of code but not so great at making it work or make sense, unfortunately

That's what thier CEO is saying

That doesn't make any sense and isn't an appropriate comment for this discussion.

The Anthropic product adding a feature is not the end of employment or even a step along the way.

MOST PEOPLE can't even use an actual computer yet even think about programming.

WYSIWYG editors didn't kill web development because most people are simply too stupid to understand a new tool, let alone use it.

How many people in the US drive cars vs. how many make them?

Rewind back to the 70s and ask the same question.

I respectfully disagree. Look at the groundbreaking Study Mode added by OpenAI: https://openai.com/index/chatgpt-study-mode/. Teachers are now jobless thanks to that amazing, monumental, revolutionary feature that the genuises at OpenAI added. Every one of their features is AGI.

You mean mass employment?

With the amount of slop/trash LLMs produce so quickly, we are gonna need even devs coming out of retirement to fix the unmaintainable trash that's been created now!

Every 10k tokens vibe kiddies spend is another retiree developer summoned to fix their shit.
