I think the key quote is:
>"Claude's extensive context window has also transformed their approach to handling large codebases. When the 200K context window was released, Hedley notes they "ripped out the entire RAG and just put it in the context window instead and it went from 60 percent accuracy to 98."
RAG = Retrieval Augmented Generation

Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Knowledge-Intensive NLP Tasks (2021) (apparently the original paper where the term 'RAG' was coined):
More like, accelerates bug development by up to 100x.
A good deal of software development is clarifying the required specification. This alone takes a lot of work and a lot of coding! If you don't know the nitty-gritty of what you really need, you can't get it at 100x or even at 10x speed.
When it comes to financial accounting work, there is just no room for buggy or sloppy code. The customer will go away forever at the first instance of being billed incorrectly, also seeking a refund from the credit card.

Come on guys, my higher ups read these headlines and then expect some miracles …
Oh fuck off!
This is all lies. I use Claude and it's just not good enough to 100x productivity.
