Now, Codeium is releasing a new coding engine called Cortex, which it claims can process more data — up to 100 million lines of code — at once.

Fast forward 50 years or so, and Pong has been largely reduced to a programmer’s exercise to see how few lines of code can stand in for what [Ted Dabney] and [Allan Alcorn] accomplished.

But millions of lines of code, or even hundreds of thousands, aren’t necessary for building a fully functioning operating system. This one sets up a complete OS in exactly 2000 lines of code.

Vehicle control is the final piece of the Tesla FSD AI puzzle. That will drop >300k lines of C++ control code by ~2 orders of magnitude. It is training as I write this. Our progress is currently ...

Together, both Benchy G-code files had 170,000+ lines of code. I didn't intend to spend a Saturday afternoon sifting through that stuff manually. But I thought, perhaps, AI could help.
