Anyone here who is currently 'underwhelmed'; please get through all 5 levels here and then say the same thing.

This is just the beginning. I seriously can't believe this place turned into neo-boomerism ideology on tech. I honestly don't get it, just makes me think everyone here talking about being seniors and architecture and blah blah; don't actually know shit, and aren't actually good at what they do.

Levels 2,3,4,5 all say coming soon.

Did you have AI Agent summarise this for you?

Funny how it says that, yet I finished the whole thing.

Maybe you should try reading a bit more.

That is the completed instructions for the fifth level, I leave it as an exercise to the reader to actually read more and find the rest of the steps on their own.

I spent some time chatting with Google engineer who put this together, Ayo Adedeji, at UCLA's SAIRS conference.

Cool story brother.

It is; thanks.

You asked about Google and what impressed me so much, going through this exercise, while not exactly helpful for me and my work directly (I'm doing similar things but completely in the Azure ecosystem), it is definitely a great display of how agents are more than just an 'LLM' that everyone here seems to think is equivalent to AI.

It's seriously the opposite feeling of imposter syndrome at this point, I'm in my 30's, a senior data engineer myself at a F200 company; I can't believe so many of my peers are so behind and ignorant of what is going on, confident enough to makes publicly lasting comments about how 'unreliable', 'bad', 'slop'; 'AI will never this or that'.

It's incredible what is going on.

I didn’t ask any of that.

I’m not sure why you’re still here, you’re just fueling your own unhealthy grievance at this point.
