The public hates ai but also uses ai in mass quantities.

Capitalism abides by your dollars not your voice.

So people can decry ai all they want but if they keep using it, it won't go away.

Even then it's probable that AI is a big enough productivity boost for certain industries that even if no consumers used AI, businesses would still prop AI up enough for it to live on.

Joined the wait-list. Can't wait.

AI already saved me from having an unnecessary surgery by recommending various modern-medicine (not alternative medicine) alternatives which ended up being effective.

Between genetics, blood stool and urine tests, scans (ultrasound, MRI, x-ray, etc), medical history... Doctors don't have time for a patient with non trivial or non obvious issues. AI has the time.

To me those are all either inferior to working on AI or can be done outside of work. And for the founder of Google, probably Google is the best place to work on AI.

I wonder if this is also a good way to create experts for specific tasks/features of a codebase.

For example, a sub-agent for adding a new stat to an RPG. It could know how to integrate with various systems like items, character stats component, metrics, and so on without having to do as much research into the codebase patterns.

It's still saving probably a single byte in this example

.a { color: red }

.b { color: red }

Also it saves on parsing time I suppose. And less to zip and unzip.

The type of thing I'd add to a projects deployment stage and never touch again unless it causes an issue.

They also have your phone so they have text messages, email access, Google auth access, etc.

So yes it is true that your phone and it's pin/biometrics are ultimately the most important thing for security. But passkey on your phone is no worse than the previous state.

Your computer can also be a passkey. I currently use both my laptop and my computer as a passkey, and a USB drive. So I have 3 backups to my Google account.

It is true that you do need to be rich enough to own a phone and ~100 USD of something else (laptop or USB), which does put redundancy out of the reach of a large portion of the world. But then they can just use regular 2fa at the expense of not being phishing-proof.
