Busy day today, not much blogging probably. #

I do find all the LLMs stuff interesting, and I've noticed the latest Anthropic release for Claude seems to be reverberating with folks, especially for its better coding ability. The developer in me was immediately curious about this Simon Willison deep dive into the system prompts. Though there was definitely some interesting stuff in there I found myself skimming through it, because like all things LLM, it's all so wordy, and you also end up feeling like some sort of computer psycologist. I wonder whether my web developer trained brain will ever get as into this as Simon appears to be.

At the minute, to me it feels a bit too close to horoscopes than I am comfortable with, no offense to any psychics and mediums that might be reading this post. I find myself craving for the unambiguity of if statements, for loops, variables and of course async/await. #
