Having said that, I could not care less about AGI and don't see how it's any relevant to what I wanna do with AI.
Like, if it tells you merge sort is better on that particular problem, do you trust it or do you go through an analysis to confirm it really is?
I have a hard time trusting what I don't understand. And even more so if I realize later I've been fooled. Note that it's the same with human though. I think I only trust technical decision I don't understand when I deem the risk of being wrong low enough. Overwise I'll invest in learning and understanding enough to trust the answer.
Who doesn't? But we have to trust them anyway, otherwise everyone should get a PhD on everything.
Also for people who "has a hard time trusting", they might just give up when encountering things they don't understand. With AI at least there is a path for them to keep digging deeper and actually verify things to whatever level of satisfaction they want.

I do not advocated for htmx; but this take is so bad!
Resume-driven development should not be a thing. If you are a professional developer, building a product for a user, your primary concern should not be the job market for when you quit the company you are working for, but rather making the best product possible for the user within the context of the current company. And if the product is such that it does not call for react, or some other javascript-rich client, then you shouldn't use it however many react jobs there may be on Indeed.
Super interesting that they're using swift. Does this mean the project is only a wrapper for system libraries ? I can't imagine writing low-level system code in swift yet.
