It would seem to me that an AI can best help a developer write code by attending meetings for him/her.

Startup Runway AI Inc. today debuted Gen-2, an artificial intelligence model that can generate brief video clips based on text prompts. AI killed the video star

My mind is in the gutter. I did not read "video" the first pass, but perhaps that was your KSS way of accessing the gutters of my mind.

Have you ever had a situation when you are debugging a complex scenario with a huge list of breakpoints, and you find yourself scrolling and tapping in the breakpoints windows to disable/enable them individually and repetitively? Breakpoint all the lines!
We need AI to manage our breakpoints

We need a breakpoint before AI manages us!

Unfortunately I think that'll fall more under the purview of an exception handler.

No, because I don't write spaghetti code.

Thank you - when I posted this, I could never imagine needing that many breakpoints that I would need to enable/disable a bunch at a time. But I figured I must have just lived a sheltered life.

Not that many but I want the feature: Mostly for task switching. Breakpoints for whatever I'm working on, and BPs for something I task-switch to PR.
Beyond that potentially to save sets for commonly worked areas, ex if I'm building out features in A and B, while also fixing bugs and making minor enhancements elsewhere.

Debugging with breakpoints is overestimated...
Console writing or messageBoxes should be enough

Support for OpenAI's DALL-E will roll out to Bing preview users in phases. Now it can also be usefully bad at drawing
Apologies for the AI theme of late

great, clicked through to bings introducing page, which has some text prompts, to see the "help me create a trivia quiz"
so like this on their main CURATED page, so I am currently very forgiving to this chat generated stuff, but for curated questions, I am expecting some things.
click, and loads page "Write a quiz about pop music trivia that I can play with my friends that has 5 questions."
cool, starts generating questions.
1, correct, 2 correct
- Which pop artist released the albums Future Nostalgia, Confessions on a Dance Floor, and Chromatica?
A) Dua Lipa
B) Madonna
C) Lady Gaga
D) Kylie Minogue
Answer: A
🤔 Confessions is Madonna, but others I am not sure of, defiantly not madonna albums.
oh maybe I standard poorly understood the question... nope, single artiest that released ALL this albums.
so close. At least first Album and Answer line up, so A for effort.
its the issue that they have placed this on the main page that has me a bit effed

Google announced that it is officially opening up its Bard chatbot with its own signup waitlist. Don't make them cancel it

According to Google Bard, Bard has already been cancelled (citing a post on hackernews predicting today + 1 year for a shutdown as it's only source).
Juan then asked Bing Chat when Bard was shut down, and it cited his tweet where Bard claimed to be shut down as evidence that it might already be gone.

Java 20 previews a series of enhancements to improve the capabilities of the 27-year-old programming language that keeps on growing. Freshly ground, for your enjoyment
"Java 20 is an incremental release that will only be supported for six months" <- I'll get right on upgrading then...

Snowballing PoC exploits for CVE-2023-23397 and a massive attack surface means that almost any business user could be a victim. The outlook is patchy
"A target doesn’t actually have to open the email to fall victim to an attack." <-- eeep!
But fortunately, there's already a patch (and a workaround if you can't patch)

If I read it correctly, only the server side of exchange is affected although the "fvcked up" is the user... if you dont use exchange, you should not worry... or have I read it understood it wrong?

No, I think you have it right - it was only the Exchange/Outlook combo. Just Outlook, or OWA are fine. I think.

The rise of artificial general intelligence—now seen as inevitable in Silicon Valley—will bring change that is "orders of magnitude" greater than anything the world has yet seen, observers say. But are we ready? We weren't as worried about an electric apocalypse
