The demos are pretty impressive imo.

What's the feasibility these days of using AI assistanted software maintenance for drivers? Does this somewhat bridge the unsupported gap by doing it yourself or is this not really a valid approach?

I've found AI tools to be pretty awful for low level work. So much of it requires making small changes to poorly documented registers. AI is very good at confidently hallucinating what register value you should use, and often is wrong. There's often such a big develop -> test cycle in embedded, and AI really only solves a very small part of it.

That's just the new normal. Everyone is doing AI assisted work, but that doesn't mean the work goes away.

Someone still has to put in meaningful effort to get the AI to do it and ship it.

where's the actual notice? all traces of it have been deleted..?

idk, I only received that message via email. Guess they wouldn't want to brag about it.

What vram you running to allow both a capable model to run and also everything else the device needs to run?

It learnt from the best

If humans would just RTFM they wouldn’t need AI.

If AI would just RTFM it wouldn't need humans.

Legend has it, to this day, TFM has not been read.

these days TFM is generated from a prompt in any case

even AI can't be bothered to read AI generated docs slop

But who would create AI?

TFM

AI that don't read the manual.

Do you tell it what you find interesting so it only responds with those posts? i.e AI/tech news/updates, gaming etc..

Yes. And I rate the suggestions it gives me and it then stores to memory and uses that to find better recommendations. It also connected dots from previous conversations we had about interests and surfaced relevant HN threads

you can do same thing with cli via env vars no?

Yes, I'm using Dagger and it has great secret support, obfuscating them even if the agent, for example, cats the contents of a key file, it will never be able to read or print the secret value itself

tl;Dr there are a lot of ways to keep secret contents away from your agent, some without actually having to keep them "physically" separate

I feel like the same top 5~ are often repeated so it becomes easy to guess.

I feel like a lot of the above assumes the user knows what they want or what works best. I want an intelligent designer to figure out the best flow/story/narrative/game and create/present it, cause I'm a dumb user who doesn't know what is actually good.

that's called a default - I'm happy for a gnome designer to "design" the button to be large enough to hit with my foot with a blindfold on, but I'd like the option to change it to adjust to my workflow rather than adjust my workflow to the button.

That has many of its own problems as well.
