Ng built baidu's AI department and began their start in various sectors with actual AI system design, so yes, he isn't a failed startup entrepreneur like any vibe startup maker who already wants to stop and give advice.

Maybe you can help me hire a vibe coder with 10 years experience?

He built it without LLMs in 2014 and now he is selling LLMs for coding to the young. That is the entire point of this subthread.

Right.. He's just a giant, not a midget with a step ladder.

But I do question why anyone who played a significant role in the foundation of the current AI generation would teach an obvious new Zuckerberg generation who will apparently think they are the start of everything if they get a style working in the prompt.

If not for 3 people in 2012, I find it highly unlikely a venture like OpenAI could have occurred and without Ng in particular I wouldn't be surprised if the field would have been missing a few technical pieces as well as the hire-able engineers.
