So 60B dollars and your primary reason it’s worth that is “tab to next” autocomplete?

Scaled to every developer in the world? Yeah, that's productivity.

I'm not sure it's worth the price tag for developers though, I mean resharper promised similar, delivered half, bought by millions and still don't think Jetbrains, even with its other good tool suit is valued 60B.

Investing in companies is not about what they are delivering right now, it is about what you think they can deliver in the future.

It is not like purchasing soap in the supermarket.

Maybe the real Mythos secret is that it found out it could fit on a GPT2 size model

I tried it a few times and was not convinced by the autocomplete.

I found it less effective than free copilot autocomplete on vanilla VSCode.

Yes, that's why Cursor was very popular when actually reading model output paragraph by paragraph was still the way you used them. That's no longer the case, their use has cratered, and in fact they have been disintermediated by their model vendors, leaving an empty shell.

I guess that fits into the Musk empire because "empty shell" increasingly describes his companies.

Tesla is a car company that doesn't want to make cars. And xAI is an AI foundation model company that actually is a data center REIT...

composer 2.5 is literally just a fine-tuned kimi model, and the autocomplete is exteremly meh.

The only kind of AI I want in my editor is an autocomplete, but this isn't very magical to non-programmers (their TAM) or all that valuable (you can't charge thousands), they bought Supermaven and basically killed it, I'm not sure how you think tab is really good, I've not been impressed when I played around with it.

What tab is better?
