  • There is no AI Revolution. There never was. Generative AI was sold as an automation solution to companies looking to decrease labor costs, but’s it’s not actually good at doing that. Moreover, there’s not enough good, accurate training material to make generative AI that much smarter or more useful than it already is.

    Generative AI is a dead end, and big companies are just now starting to realize that, especially after the Goldman-Sachs report on AI. Sam Altman is just a snake oil saleman, another failing-upwards executive who told a bunch of other executives what they wanted to hear. It’s just now becoming clear that the emperor has no clothes.



  • It highly depends on the programming language used and how much debug information is left in the build. Production builds of software usually have debug symbols and other information useful during development stripped out to save space and improve runtime performance. Even when it is technically possible to decompile built code, the decompiled result may not be human-readable to the point of being useful. Imagine reading source code that has random names for variables, functions, modules, etc, or code that does not have any discernable organization.
