This is a repeated theme of the article. I think it’d be simpler to write the non boilerplaty code, no? Plus who’s going to be excited to have a job as “AI code reviewer”
- vladiliescu 5y agoYou know that gif where Gary Oldman yells 'EVERYONE'? :P I've got a sneaking suspicion that this is what we'll be doing in the future, I see Copilot as a taste of what future compilers will be like. In a few years I expect to have most of an application built by an AI, with me developing the business/core logic by hand.

- dathinab 5y agoIt's worse then that, because the AI is likely to reproduce the kinds of bugs which where overlooked by the source it learned it from. At the same time code reviews are hard, much harder then writing code. So making it faster to write boiler code at the cost of harder code reviews seems to not be a good trade of for me.
