The number of people in the world who will need to know the details of successfully training state-of-the-art LLMs will be a tiny fraction of the number of people in the world who will simply use out of the box LLMs and/or treat them as a minor subsystem in the context of a larger software-intensive system.
Both skill sets are necessary; both have very different purposes.
In the fullness of time, LLMs will become a commodity, and the vibrant heat and smoke and noise and murmuration of large piles of cash you see now will settle down.
@simonmaechling@rebeccabutlerm2@tonymc39 Also, Hydrogen isn't inherently bad, it's literally the most abundant element in the universe. It's just "bad" in "large" doses.
everyone's talking about their teams like they were at the peak of efficiency and bottlenecked by ability to produce code
here's what things actually look like
- your org rarely has good ideas. ideas being expensive to implement was actually helping
- majority of workers have no reason to be super motivated, they want to do their 9-5 and get back to their life
- they're not using AI to be 10x more effective they're using it to churn out their tasks with less energy spend
- the 2 people on your team that actually tried are now flattened by the slop code everyone is producing, they will quit soon
- even when you produce work faster you're still bottlenecked by bureaucracy and the dozen other realities of shipping something real
- your CFO is like what do you mean each engineer now costs $2000 extra per month in LLM bills
"Code Is Cheap Now. Software Isn’t."
The barrier to entry for building software has collapsed. The barrier to building something that matters hasn’t moved an inch.

@r0ck3t23 "Everything’s going to be customized to your unique utilization.”
I don't know how to break it to Mark, but that's exactly how it works now and has worked for decades.
Custom software has been around for a very long time.
Joseph Heller, an important and funny writer now dead, and I were at a party given by a billionaire on Shelter Island. I said, “Joe, how does it make you feel to know that our host only yesterday may have made more money than your novel ‘Catch-22’ has earned in its entire history?” And Joe said, “I’ve got something he can never have.” And I said, “What on earth could that be, Joe?” And Joe said, “The knowledge that I’ve got enough.”
