I'm pretty sure AI _is_ "personal computing".

One can speak in their native language to a computer now and it mostly understands what is meant and can retrieve information or even throw together a scaffold of a project somewhat reliably.

It's not particularly good at writing software, however. Still feels like a human is needed to make sure it doesn't generate nonsense or apparently pretty insecure code.

So I'm not sure the author got the point across that they wished, but aren't vector databases basically a semantic storage/retrieval technology?

Yes, I rolled my eyes about the sneering of the author.

By the way: His blog getting a few dozen hn comments is only impressive, because he failed to write a better blog.
