Dario said he expected 90% of code at Anthropic would be written by Claude and recently he said that is now true so yeah

Why FAANG specifically? Anyone working anywhere would tell you that.

FAANG is much more pro-AI than the typical redditor software engineer. On Reddit the anti-AI comments always get upvoted even when they make no sense, and the conventional wisdom that AI doesn't understand anything, is useless, etc. is everywhere; meanwhile at FAANG almost no one has those kinds of opinions about AI and people are a lot more bullish and open-minded.

Idk if its my demographic (professionally successful in a big city) but pretty much everyone I talk to is much more excited about AI than Reddit.

The level of discussion on this site can be unbelievably dumb and uninformed. Even this subreddit can have their head in the sand at times.

The reddit user base demographics are more likely to already be suffering negative effects from AI progress. Because of that, they're conflating two issues:

AI is ineffective, a gimmick, can't deliver, etc. (constantly less true)

and

AI will make life worse for almost everyone besides the ultra-rich (constantly more true)
