    Past to Future: Software Development Revolutionized by LLM

    23rd May 2023 /

    I remember, two decades ago, when Google fundamentally disrupted the programming landscape. By revolutionizing the way, we decipher error messages, it made the process as effortless as a quick search, rendering traditional manuals obsolete. Major tech entities who produce software, programming tools, frameworks, compilers, runtime, and operating systems began to step back from maintaining extensive knowledge bases and providing detailed explanations for their software-generated error codes. Instead, they trusted the collective wisdom of tech communities to fill these knowledge gaps. As we stand today, we’re on the brink of another monumental transformation in the world of tech. Low-Level Machine (LLM) tools are poised to reshape the contours of software development,…

    ChatGPT4 and Bing Chat Are Better Than Google’s Bard

    22nd May 2023 /

    I’ve been testing out a bunch of different AI chatbots lately, and I’m finding that ChatGPT4 and Bing Chat are better at the tasks I’m using them for. Google’s Bard is still pretty new, so it’s not quite ready for primetime yet. But I’m sure it will get better in the future. Here’s are some quick sample outputs I got from each chatbot when I asked them to predict the rating of a movie I never reviewed in my blog: ChatGPT4:  4.5 stars Bing Chat:  4 stars Google Bard:  3 stars As you can see, ChatGPT4 and Bing Chat were both able to make a more accurate prediction than Google…

    Gamified Software usability session

    10th May 2023 /

    Last week, I had a blast hosting a gamified session for a group of techies! We played Red vs Blue style games to spot software usability and quality issues, and it was so much fun! I strongly believe that software usability should not be an afterthought or left solely to UX designers or testers. It’s essential that all stakeholders in a software team are aware of it and actively practice it. It cannot be enforced by a process alone; it must be ingrained in the culture. And what better way to encourage a culture of software usability than by gamifying it?😉

    Ten things not to learn from Big Tech on customer support

    1st August 2022 /

    TEN things every #SaaS founder should NOT be learning from the #BigTech & other popular apps. The bigger firms have great tech stacks and scale, but their DNA was never created for supporting individual consumers – they may have a good heart, but their size makes it impossible for them to care for a single consumer. #saasboomi #not_to_be_learned 1️⃣ Don’t publish contact details, no phone numbers & definitely no email. 2️⃣ Have support forums answered by the community. Give them stars (save $$$). No usable Search, better a broken one. The genuinely interested can use Quora and Reddit, with no liability to the product owners for the accuracy of the…
