🧵I have always been fascinated by the constant evolution of our field. In this thread, I want to share some reflections on the key trends and challenges that we saw in 2022 and how they might shape the industry in the future. #2022inShort

Anyone can be creative with the right context and conditions. https://t.co/Rrhql9RP9d

Wow!

The "90% of code written by AI" thing is increasingly true for very good independent coders, not just a thing the labs say about the future. (The remaining 10% is still very important and very human, though)

@alex_prompter Brilliant use of AI, looking forward to test it at some point

[Basit Tanveer @basitt]

@CIOonline Great suggestions! A major reason is the speed of building POCs, which often ignores operations and scalability, causing pain for teams during operationalization.

Nice share and try to ask following questions

[Steve Stewart-Williams @SteveStuWill]

Psychologists have posited hundreds of cognitive biases over the years. A fascinating paper argues that they all boil down to one of a handful of fundamental beliefs coupled with confirmation bias.

@SteveStuWill It always comes down to “I” (capital i) the ego.

Companies don’t want software. They want good will, customers, revenues, and lower operating costs.

[Basit Tanveer @basitt]

if you are serious about taking care of your customers, you will need to invest in your ability to deliver very frequent, very small releases.

Honestly I think LLMs are the illusion or imitation of thinking, language didn't come before building a model of the world. There are a lot of tests that you can do from the cognitive sciences that shows this, and which LLMs fails at, and the guys at big companies are simply patching the mistakes, and throwing around slogans to sell their products. Narrow AI applications, are often actually where the groundbreaking stuff happens. Silicon Valley's fake it till you make it attitude to everything, might come at a very big price when these LLMs hallucinate. I am optimistic about AI, and I'm a big user of AI and LLMs myself, but I'm under no illusions of its shortcomings. @GaryMarcus' article brilliantly breaks down the hype.

🔒 Why is Gen Z so anxious? Maybe because their lives have been under surveillance since birth—likes, comments, filters, followers. #PrivacyCrisis #iGen

[Basit Tanveer @basitt]

🚼 Millennials got the internet in middle school. iGen got it in the crib. That changes everything. #GenerationalShift #iGen

[Basit Tanveer @basitt]

🧠 Gen Z has grown up online. But no app teaches empathy, no filter builds resilience, and no algorithm replaces real life. #iGen #HumanConnection

Wow! I think most of them (lawyers) will be unaware of this.. that’s the reason it’s important to understand the tech before using it in high stake use cases.

[Simon Willison @simonw]

When lawyers first started getting yelled at by judges for citing hallucinated case 2y ago I naively assumed word would get around and they would all quickly learn not to

This DB has 116 cases from 12 countries where this happened, 20 of them this month! https://t.co/wIxrcIgggT

🎭 “Everyone is happier than me.” That’s the lie social media tells every teen, every day. #ComparisonTrap #iGen

[Basit Tanveer @basitt]

🔋 Social media promises connection. But for Gen Z, it's draining their confidence and joy. The more they scroll, the less they smile. #iGen #DigitalDepression

[Basit Tanveer @basitt]

⏳ The time teens spend with friends in-person dropped 40% in just 15 years. Phones are stealing the best part of growing up. #iGen #IRLMatters

[Basit Tanveer @basitt]

😤 Triggered. Anxious. Numb. These aren’t moods—they’re lifestyles for too many teens growing up on TikTok and Twitter. #MentalHealthCrisis #iGen

[Basit Tanveer @basitt]

⚠️ Gen Z isn’t just the next generation. They’re a social experiment. We handed them tech without a manual. Now we’re seeing the fallout. #iGen #ThinkBeforeYouScroll
