Je rassemble ici en trois paragraphes et neuf liens tout ce que j’ai écrit sur l’IA générative (IAG) dans la partie Blog de mon site depuis deux ans. Ceci donne un bon aperçu de ma position concernant l’IAG à la date de publication de ce billet. Je mets également ce texte dans ma page sur l’IA dans la partie Cours du site, et c’est là-bas que je ferai des mises à jour si besoin.

Every other year I come back to this absolute beauty of a column by Hegel.
I have given a talk that is just slowly reading the piece.
Is a piece I find accessible, delightful, clarifying, precise & modelling.

"Tokenmaxxing" is the latest corporate trend taking over the tech world, but is it actually measuring developer productivity—or is it just burning a monumental hole in company finances?
In this episode of Internet of Bugs, Carl breaks down the origins of tokenmaxxing, from Jensen Huang’s podcast comments to prestigious VC letters pushing AI-driven developer metrics. We explore the terrible history of trying to measure programmer productivity (like counting lines of code), how Goodhart's law ruins these systems, and why massive tech companies might actually be incentivizing this slop just to train their own internal AI models.
Furthermore, we look at the financial reality of the AI bubble, upcoming tech IPOs, and why shipping dead code or hiding bugs behind feature flags can cause catastrophic real-world losses (like the 2012 Knight Capital Group meltdown).
