How do you envision that working? A manager needs to have a feature added to their app that lets you customize product attributes. How do they communicate this to the AI? Sketches and flowcharts? Empty stub functions?
What happens with the 1500 lines of code the AI spits out? Is it merged in and rigorously tested? What happens if there's an error? Start over?
I'm just not really seeing how it'll work.
As an adjunct, a tool to make a programmer more efficient, I see a thousand ways it could help. But that doesn't reduce the demand for programmers. It makes them more valuable.
- muzani 4y agoI'm actually working on something that lets AI spit out code of a specific architecture, somewhat inspired by AWS CloudFormation. I think it's like anything else. You figure a way to communicate to the machine. Except instead of our current programming languages that resemble legal documents, the future "language" might be more abstract and high level. The pitch for the current generation of AI is "your pair programmer". So that's probably the first step - it checks your code or you ask it to code and you check its code.
