GPT3 writing code. A compiler from natural language to code. People don't understand — this will change absolutely everything. We're decoupling human horsepower from code production. The intellectual equivalent of the discovery of the engine. player.vimeo.com/video/42681…

Lots of companies pursuing computers for agents. Very exciting time to see how best to remotely control long-running agents. @bot looks like a really strong implementation.
