Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.
What if @claudeai could get a second opinion before writing your code?
I made Claude Code automatically consult OpenAI's Codex before approving any plan. Two competing models reviewing each other = way better output.
Just updated the skill with @OpenAI 5.4 model.

Some people today are discouraging others from learning programming on the grounds AI will automate it. This advice will be seen as some of the worst career advice ever given. I disagree with the Turing Award and Nobel prize winner who wrote, “It is far more likely that the programming occupation will become extinct [...] than that it will become all-powerful. More and more, computers will program themselves.” Statements discouraging people from learning to code are harmful!
In the 1960s, when programming moved from punchcards (where a programmer had to laboriously make holes in physical cards to write code character by character) to keyboards with terminals, programming became easier. And that made it a better time than before to begin programming. Yet it was in this era that Nobel laureate Herb Simon wrote the words quoted in the first paragraph. Today’s arguments not to learn to code continue to echo his comment.
As coding becomes easier, more people should code, not fewer!
Over the past few decades, as programming has moved from assembly language to higher-level languages like C, from desktop to cloud, from raw text editors to IDEs to AI assisted coding where sometimes one barely even looks at the generated code (which some coders recently started to call vibe coding), it is getting easier with each step.
I wrote previously that I see tech-savvy people coordinating AI tools to move toward being 10x professionals — individuals who have 10 times the impact of the average person in their field. I am increasingly convinced that the best way for many people to accomplish this is not to be just consumers of AI applications, but to learn enough coding to use AI-assisted coding tools effectively.
One question I’m asked most often is what someone should do who is worried about job displacement by AI. My answer is: Learn about AI and take control of it, because one of the most important skills in the future will be the ability to tell a computer exactly what you want, so it can do that for you. Coding (or getting AI to code for you) is a great way to do that.
When I was working on the course Generative AI for Everyone and needed to generate AI artwork for the background images, I worked with a collaborator who had studied art history and knew the language of art. He prompted Midjourney with terminology based on the historical style, palette, artist inspiration and so on — using the language of art — to get the result he wanted. I didn’t know this language, and my paltry attempts at prompting could not deliver as effective a result.
Similarly, scientists, analysts, marketers, recruiters, and people of a wide range of professions who understand the language of software through their knowledge of coding can tell an LLM or an AI-enabled IDE what they want much more precisely, and get much better results. As these tools are continuing to make coding easier, this is the best time yet to learn to code, to learn the language of software, and learn to make computers do exactly what you want them to do.

Introducing Willow, our new state-of-the-art quantum computing chip with a breakthrough that can reduce errors exponentially as we scale up using more qubits, cracking a 30-year challenge in the field. In benchmark tests, Willow solved a standard computation in <5 mins that would take a leading supercomputer over 10^25 years, far beyond the age of the universe(!).
Anthropic just announced Computer Use
It allows Claude to control your computer screen based on a prompt and take actions on your behalf
The use cases in agentic coding with automated debugging, customer support, and education are going to be INSANE
The ChatGPT desktop app just became the best coding assistant on the planet.
Simply select the code, and GPT-4o will take care of it.
Combine this with audio/video capability, and you get your own engineer teammate.
🚨 Potencial vector de ataque a emails .com.ar🚨
Si estás usando como casilla de email principal una que termina en .com.ar, tenés un potencial problema MUY grande.
¿Por qué? Con todos los leaks gubernamentales que estamos viendo, es altamente probable que se empiecen a robar / secuestrar dominios .com.ar, los cuales se manejan via la plataforma Tramites a distancia, a la cual se puede logear con clave fiscal de AFIP. La operatoria para secuestrar tu casilla de email es simple: te entran en tu cuenta de tramites a distancia, actualizan el DNS de tu dominio y les empiezan a llegar tus emails al atacante, quien resetea todos tus accesos a distintas plataformas (bancos, fintech, exchanges, etc).
Si tu empresa usa un dominio .com.ar, mi recomendación es que migres lo antes posible a un .com.
