I had a meeting with my boss today about my AI usage. I said I tried using Claude 4.5, and I was ultimately unimpressed with the results, the code was heavy and inflexible. He assured me Claude 4.6 would solve that problem. I pointed out that I am already writing software faster than the rest of the team can review because we are short staffed. He suggested I use Claude to review my MRs.
The trick is to tell them you’ve been using it more than they have and that it’s not as good as chatGPT for task A, but that for task B claude does okay 25% of the time so we’ll need to 4x the timeline in order to get a good claude output based on that expected value.
But not as good as your personal local LLM that you’ve been training on company data. No one else can use it because it’s illegal to clone. (your personal local LLM is your brain)
Telling your boss you trained a personal LLM with company data will lead to nothing but you holding a box full of your stuff about 10 minutes later.
Yeah, and that’s possible even if they take it for a joke that it is (or isn’t)
Given that this person’s boss wants them to dump company data into Claude, I see no functional difference.
Ralph Wiggum loop that shit
Numbers go up, Claude won’t bother you 👍🏻
What software are you writing? I’m struggling to see what any of this does, and for who. We could set all these AI computers on fire and what would it change? We have water, food, electricity, clothes, homes, cars, etc Oh we have AI Becky videos!

One big problem with management is their inability to listen. Folks say shit over and over but management seems deaf because we’re not people to be listened to.

If you were so smart you’d have wads of cash like them. They got where they are through sheer grit and bootstraps and a paltry $50 million from their family.

This is a major issue with capitalism. It is a massively inefficient way to organize society. The people with the most money do not necessarily make good decisions. They usually make selfish decisions.

This has been my life for the last nine months. I’m thinking of getting of software development all together for fear that no other place will be any different regarding AI.
