I'll believe it when I see it. Using any of the AI tools so far to help me program are worse than garbage. They produce code that looks like it works but has subtle hard-to-find bugs it in. Also, AI researchers have been saying we will all be out of a job for 75 years now.
- red-iron-pine 3y agoI can get good, but not great code out of it. It mostly works, but then I have to spend a lot of time trying to figure out what it does and why... and what it doesn't do. for example i'm dangerous with node.js and mongo, but don't know enough to easily slap out some code. so if i want to do some linked-lists / mongo documents in documents, i can get there with a little bit of searching and sanity checking. when i asked ChatGPT for the answer it put out something that looked mostly right, but 1) didn't work, and 2) wasn't clear why it made these choices. i spent more time trying to un-fuck that code than if i had just stumbled through it from scratch -- and i would have had a better understanding of what was happening from the jump.
