AI was supposed to help juniors shine. why does it mostly make seniors stronger?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-09 03:56:59

The question “Will coding be taken over entirely by AI?” has been asked to death already, and people keep trying to answer it. I’m not sure there’s anything truly new to say, but I want to share my own observations. The early narrative was that companies would need fewer seniors, and juniors together with AI could produce quality code. At least that’s what I kept seeing. But now, partly because AI hasn’t quite lived up to the hype, it looks like what companies actually need is not junior + AI,

Vibe Coding Cleanup as a Service A new service category is quietly emerging in tech: Vibe Coding cleanup.

Amazon to end commingling after years of complaints from brands and sellers

news.ycombinator.com Allison Smith 2025-10-09 15:23:59

Amazon revealed at its annual Accelerate seller conference in Seattle that it is shutting down its long-running “commingling” program — a move that drew louder applause from sellers than any other update of the morning. The decision marks the end of a controversial practice in which Amazon pooled identical items from different sellers under one barcode. The system, intended to speed deliveries and save warehouse space, had also allowed counterfeit or expired goods to be mixed in with authentic

The company's CEO, Sebastian Siemiatkowski, has thrown the entire company's weight behind artificial intelligence, infamously boasting that the tech was doing the work of "700 full-time agents" last year — only to regret his decision months later, admitting that humans play an important role after all.

OpenAI Tries to Train AI Not to Deceive Users, Realizes It's Instead Teaching It How to Deceive Them While Covering Its Tracks

OpenAI researchers tried to train the company's AI to stop "scheming" — a term the company defines as meaning "when an AI behaves one way on the surface while hiding its true goals" — but their efforts backfired in an ominous way. In reality, the team found, they were unintentionally teaching the AI how to more effectively deceive humans by covering its tracks.

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. The Chinese AI company DeepSeek released a chatbot earlier this year called R1, which drew a huge amount of attention. Most of it focused on the fact that a relatively small and unknown company said it had built a chatbot that rivaled the performance of those from the world’s most famous AI companies, but using a fraction of the computer power and cost.

If you are good at code review, you will be good at using AI agents

Using AI agents correctly is a process of reviewing code. If you’re good at reviewing code, you’ll be good at using tools like Claude Code, Codex, or the Copilot coding agent. Why is that? Large language models are good at producing a lot of code, but they don’t yet have the depth of judgement of a competent software engineer.

LLM-Deflate: Extracting LLMs into Datasets

Large Language Models compress massive amounts of training data into their parameters. This compression is lossy but highly effective—billions of parameters can encode the essential patterns from terabytes of text. However, what’s less obvious is that this process can be reversed: we can systematically extract structured datasets from trained models that reflect their internal knowledge representation.
