It's annoying to see a link to a Theo video -- same guy who went with Simon to OpenAI's GPT-5 glazefest and had to backpedal when everyone realized what a shill he is.

I know neither of them are journalists -- I'm probably expecting too much -- but Simon should know better.

While not a journalist, Simon definitely has a background in journalism.

He was one of the original authors of Django, back when it was a “web framework for journalists with deadlines”.

Exactly. That's why I said he should know better. He never should have gone to that event to hype GPT-5 under the guise of "testing" it out.

> "We find that comments by GPT‑5-Codex are less likely to be incorrect or unimportant" -- less unimportant comments in code is definitely an improvement!

This seems to be a misunderstanding. In the original OpenAI article, comment here is about code review comment, not comment in code.
