  I would love to read an independent study on this, but this is from Anthropic (the guys that make Claude) so it’s definitely biased.

  Speaking for myself, I’ve been using LLM’s to help out with jumps in small gaps of knowledge. Like for example, I know what I need to do, I just don’t know/remember the specific functions or libraries that I need to do that in Python. LLM is extremely useful for these moments; and it’s faster than searching and asking on forums. And to be transparent, I did learn a few tricks here and there.

  But if someone lets the LLM do most of the work - like vibe coders - I doubt they will learn anything.

  but they’re easily outnumbered by the console market

  I don’t think this is the case nowadays. I remember reading an article that PC market was outselling the console market.

  But yes, the mobile market is a giant

  Anyone managed to download the report? Here it just says “report submitted” and then nothing happens. No emails no nothing.
