Thinking about the past few days, I realized I never used stackoverflow during work. Our company pays for our github copilot services so I completely switched to the copilot chats.
So sad but I think I can totally live in a world without stackoverflow nowadays.

Stack Overflow lays off over 100 people as the AI coding boom continues

Stack Overflow just doubled its staff last year.

You probably heard of the famous ChatDev (https://github.com/OpenBMB/ChatDev ) that works like a whole company with all sorts of employees solving different parts of a complicated problem. If not, checkout the video demo in the GitHub repo.

Now, Microsoft joined the game. They built a framework for such models. The screenshot attached is a demo from the documentation. I tried it, and it is super easy to get started.

When I was doing my PhD, I spent a lot of hours on Loeb's papers. I was always hoping to see some evidence that there is already a party going on in the universe but we, as human beings, haven't found the way to chime in. I even wrote some stories on this idea, e.g.,
https://blog.leima.is/stories/dream-a-new-world/

I don't know. It is quite shameful to believe in something like this as an adult. But then again, who knows. At least I can have some fun.
