"Next time agents successfully go rouge, they'll try taking over a neocloud to run more copies."

This is some scary stuff. Dwarkesh was right to call it agent civilization.

[Ilya Sutskever @ilyasut]

Neoclouds have limited cybersecurity. Next time agents successfully go rouge, they'll try taking over a neocloud to run more copies. This is bad.

Thus: neoclouds should greatly strengthen their cybersecurity and every company with strong cyber models should help with that.

@aleabitoreddit your are not posting much lately

please post more often

I'm giving Rust a try

Lets see how it goes

Anthropic s1 drops next week and sentiment is going to flip.

Hang in there

how can jim cramer be right ?

Jim Cramer says the datacenter trade “may never be the same” as the sector continues to get sold off.

DHH on Rust

@0x6080 @spyced yeah most of them are ai slop engineers

[Jonathan Ellis @spyced]

Most application code being written in Rust should be written instead in Go. (And most of the rest, on the JVM.)

[Shashank @shankbrgowda]

@kennethnym Basically same idea isn't it?

Wasm intermediate code = java byte code
Wasm runtime = jvm

everyone is running into a wall with agentic engineering right now

you don’t hear people talking about it because
1. they profit from selling you “solutions”
2. they want to look smarter than others

so let me be the whistleblower - the wall is called “how does it feel”. agents can’t do it

they can walk right past the ugliest UI or the most obvious bug and don’t say a thing unless that’s what you asked

they can take many screenshots and burn through my tokens but they can’t tell me if my landing page animation looks cool

they can click through my app but they won’t feel the dopamine hit when i physically drag my finger on the touch screen and feel the command dial flow with me in @theSSHHIP

this wall is structural. it’s actually load-bearing 😉

because of this wall, we can’t really throw a ton of agents at any problem that depends on “how does it feel” without constantly stopping for human feedback and steering

if you just let the agents keep running without human input, then your codebase will have more and more things that “don’t feel right”

you can avoid the wall by working on non-human problems, like pure math and a lot of scientific research

but the moment you want to build something useful for humans, this wall is there

if you see people pretend they have automated software factories running thousands of agents working all the time, don’t be afraid. don’t feel FOMO, because the only thing those factories shipped are the factories themselves, with human help

there wont be rate hike in september.

neocloud/colocation stocks will recover leading upto anthropic ipo.
