"It's not a problem that it steals code because it doesn't work that well right now" is not a valid argument, don't pretend that AI doesn't advance on a daily basis.
Reminds me of people who defend AI art with "you can tell it apart from real art" yeah no, at the rate we're moving you won't be able to tell at all in a year or two.
- blacksmith_tb 4y agoI agree with your starting point, but art actually makes the questions clearer I think - having AI art "you can't tell apart" is possibly a bad thing for human producers of art (or not, obviously lots of artists don't make their art just to get paid, but if you do...), but seems like a great thing for the human consumers of art? Copiliot/tabnine etc. could certainly give you terrible suggestions, but my experience is they often help with boring scaffolding-stuff which isn't likely to be full of bad ideas, just time savings. Could they mess you up? Oh for sure. But mostly they just seem like an autocorrect that doesn't guess wrong every other time.
