I have a friend who also relishes sharing these kinds of antidotes, and seems to have decided that AI-augmented coding is a bridge too far.
Personally, I worry that this is a cut-off-your-nose-to-spite-your-face response, and that he'll be unhirable sooner than he expects.
- vinceguidry 3y agoI wouldn't have any of these anecdotes if this friend didn't keep pushing horrible 'bot-takes' on me. My issue isn't with what GPT tools are actually useful or not useful for, they're just tools, but with idiots who think typing in a query to save 5 minutes of Googling and actually reading results to get a quick overview of a topic, especially on a topic that I have some familiarity with. He seems to think the bot is smarter and more useful than actual human knowledge. Oh and the other problem I have with it is that you have to wade through endless pages of gpt-trash when you do try to use a search engine to get an answer to a question now.

True, and most people don't realize how bad it's going to get. We're still in the honeymoon period where most content on the internet is human-created, but machine-generated content will be the vast majority of online content by the end of the decade.
