I’m dumb. This is a joke right? At most I can say AI has revolutionized how I interface with documentation.
- ninepoints 3y agoI would think that the title alone should indicate that this entire bit is satire.

- coldtea 3y agoThat is a joke in the context of the post. Not so much a joke in general reality. For you, AI might have just revolutionized how you "interface with documentation", but a huge share of programmers in any company are already using AI, officially or unofficially as a coding assistant. And of course MS, IntelliJ and others are all having out products on this.
- teaearlgraycold 3y agoI’m using it as a coding assistant. The coding assistant is essentially fancy hyper speed documentation.

- elzbardico 3y agoGPT is a brilliant interface to github search and stack overflow. That's all. Most of the time I use it, like stack overflow, you need to double check if it is the idiomatic way of doing it, if it IS still the right way of doing stuff or even if the code is correct, not full of bugs or even if it is solving the right problem. It is like a helpful, but over-confident intern helping you with toil and research.
