I mean the best coders are using AI as part of their workflow, so I can't imagine an AI surpassing them

Preferring Manual Coding Over AI Code Assistants

I still have to fully embrace code assistant in my workflow. It's just that I enjoy coding too much .
I feel like driving a stick shift at this point . -
AI Code Generation Won’t Match Top Human Programmers by 2026

> and may match the best human coders by late 2026
No, unless you compare it to a human coder working offline. -
Speculation on AI Pin Company Acquisition for OS Development

Just speculating, but they probably could have accomplished this already by the end of the year by acquiring that AI pin company for their OS and apps stuff.

Text Data Handling for Building Large Language Models From Scratch
By
–
A new video in my “Build A Large Language Model From Scratch” series is now live. In this tutorial, I cover text data handling, which is an important component for both understanding and training LLMs.
In particular, the video walks through the following topics:
– The process of -
GPT-5 Likely Larger Than GPT-4 With Enhanced Training
By
–
My intuition is it's somewhere in between. Somewhat bigger than GPT-4, more training data, and some additional training methodology.

Is GPT-4o a Distilled and Quantized Version of GPT-4?
By
–
Maybe, but that begs the question: how much smaller is GPT-4o than GPT-4? I think GPT-4o is probably a heavily quantized and distilled or pruned model that took a while to develop based on GPT-4.

10X Pretraining Compute vs Model Size: Clarification on Scaling
By
–
He said "10X pretraining compute" which doesn't mean 10x bigger. It can well be the same size but use more training tokens, longer contexts, and other algorithmic changes.

Inferring Model Size from Speed and Pricing is Complex
By
–
I think model size is hard to infer from speed & pricing: it depends on – GPU type
– precision and quantization at inference
– batch scaling
– subsidized or not
– MoE or not
– etc. -
GPU Constraints May Limit GPT-4.5 Rollout at OpenAI
By
–
You mean GPUs? Yeah, well, it depends. OpenAI is a much bigger company with many more regular users now. Maybe o1 and Deep Research users are hogging so many GPUs that they can't roll out GPT-4.5 to as many as they would have liked. Without more info it's hard to say anything
