It’s Not AI Psychosis If It Works#Before I wrote my blog post about how I use LLMs, I wrote a tongue-in-cheek blog post titled Can LLMs write better code if you keep asking them to “write better code”? which is exactly as the name suggests. It was an experiment to determine how LLMs interpret the ambiguous command “write better code”: in this case, it was to prioritize making the code more convoluted with more helpful features, but if instead given commands to optimize the code, it did make the code faster successfully albeit at the cost of significant readability. In software engineering, one of the greatest sins is premature optimization, where you sacrifice code readability and thus maintainability to chase performance gains that slow down development time and may not be worth it. Buuuuuuut with agentic coding, we implicitly accept that our interpretation of the code is fuzzy: could agents iteratively applying optimizations for the sole purpose of minimizing benchmark runtime — and therefore faster code in typical use cases if said benchmarks are representative — now actually be a good idea? People complain about how AI-generated code is slow, but if AI can now reliably generate fast code, that changes the debate.

Россияне стали заботиться о здоровье.Как работает онкостраховка и сколько она стоит3 февраля 2025
2025年,全国省际贸易销售额占全部销售额的比重升至41%,跨省跨区交易电量占全国电力市场交易电量的比重升至24%。社会物流总费用与GDP的比率降至13.9%,创有统计以来的最好水平。这“两升一降”,反映要素实现更大范围优化配置,市场交易成本不断降低。
