But many people are claiming that chatgpt increases their productivity by 50-100%. Doesn't it mean we need less programmers now?

- KeplerBoy 2y agoIt's easy to be 50% faster at coding when you spend a lot of time discussing with the LLM before you start coding.
- realusername 2y agoNo, it means we are building even more stuff with the same developers. The limiting factor still is the number of software developers, not the software demand.
- EVa5I7bHFq9mnYK 2y agoWhat stuff are you building? Everything is falling apart. I can't read without an account most of the sites that were accessible just a year ago: twitter, reddit, youtube etc.
- realusername 2y agoI'm in some B2B business. I don't know a single company where the limiting factor is the roadmap. Everybody is using AI to push even more stuff out.
- cbg0 2y ago> Everything is falling apart. This is an overly dramatic take.
- 2muchcoffeeman 2y agoIn my experience there is way more work than you can conceivably get done. There is no way the work is running out.
- him6ul 2y agoIt is indeed helpful. It takes care of lot of mundane statements which I used to type earlier or use macros for. But AI at this point, still cannot write core logic - it will help in creating envelope but core business logic you still have to plugun.
- hawski 2y agoEntertaining the thought that it is indeed the case maybe it would make late projects (IMHO most of them) less late.
