I had to look this up. This is the founder of Khan Academy, depressingly.
Full interview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-Iz-lLAhdg
He unironically waxes awestruck at how AI is changing everything and then sheepishly admits his Anthropic bill is about $1.2 million per year. He has caught the AI stupids, and it's probably terminal.
I mean, that depends on how many people are using it. Are we talking about one person, or a whole company?
I'm sure he could save 3-10x of his money by using open source models. Anthropic charges too much when Kimi K3 matches its capabilities.
I hate how there's a certain segment of the population who loves to hate everything AI, while a vast majority of the programmers are saying that it really is changing everything. Maybe it's not yet ready for your industry, but it's a fundamentally different world (and attitude) for ours.
You just can't be stupid about it. Re-interate on rules to fix bad behaviors, AI and human code reviews together, don't burn tokens just because you can. And you can't say stupid shit like "Want to interview my agents first?"
Shit, speaking of interviews, it's all over the HR world, too. Agents writing resumes and the agents that read them for filtering.
Is that me?
It’s really unfortunate that he has fallen so low
Years after education I still look at his Taylor series videos as refreshers. I’m genuinely gutted. He was part of the hopeful, tiny bit of digital utopianism I had in my brain
