Is anyone actually like super hyped about "Building AI Agents" with this and that? I wish I could get excited and just become a 100% AI Agwnt vibecoding all day and building AI agents to do AI stuff but like, I don't know?
Is there a crowd that just drools whenever a new way to "Build AI Agwnts" or "Agentic Workflows" comes out or something?
With Google or any other big company, unless you have a dedicated account manager and you're spending like $1 million+ per year, you're kind of like just an ant to step on basically.
Yes, every single Enterprise customer that was unfortunate enough to be subscribed to LLama 3.3 has had their plans terminated. Everyone would have gladly migrated to OSS or something, but they never gave us the option.
my guess is they are aiming for the high rollers and not shrimp like you even though you were "Enterprise". I worked for a company that wanted to get rid of the lower tier customers to focus the money makers.
I had the second highest tier. But yes, that makes sense.
Regardless, I just don't see them as a stable business partner. I know the same cycle will continue with the next round of deprecation. Perhaps the highest tier enterprise users will form a different opinion.
You don't sell it to the "Russian mob", you sell it to a highly reputable security company that will buy it for like $10 million or more and sell it to governments and stuff, not the mob.
I mean, seriously.
Why would I ever go find a 0 click rce bug and then just donate it to a trillion dollar company just to get a "thx" when I can just retire right then and there?
I dropped out as soon as I could, I have ADD and school was the most excruciatingly painful thing I've ever experienced mentally. It felt like my entire life purpose was about waiting for it to finally end.
I enjoyed discovering new things and learning stuff that genuinely was interesting to me. Howeverlearning what a "big rock" symbol was in a map in geography class was the kind of stuff that made me want to chew my own arm for stimulation.
Plus not to mention having to accept wrong things as right because the teacher lacks the information and is just reading off a book.
I never did homework, except for a handful of times.
I spent my time programming and learning about industry stuff in the tech scene.
And I love working, because you're actually like building towards something, not just "trust me, this'll be valuable later on" (which my brain can't interpret as a motivator)
I envy those that get excited about acquiring credentials and getting formally educated about this and that, it's a way easier way to live in this world.
"proper" probably means backed by a member state, founder is a former gov worker, product is being co-developed by a local university, is based on academic research, founding team has PhDs and has 15 large enterprise customers lined up
