> When people hype up that the AI solved something for them, I wonder were they lazy like me working with something complex, or were they lazy and didn't even try on something simple? The truth they won't tell you is that they have likely invested in that AI tool and they are hyping it up with their VC friends that 'It works' even when they know it doesn't. Each time I talk to the AI bros about these limitations, they retort to their whataboutisms with 'But humans hallucinate too!', 'The human brain is the same as an LLM' nonsense excuses. LLMs do not 'understand' your problems nor can they reason about them. O1 is no different and instead of buying into the scam and prompting endlessly with garbage results and attempting to replace your co-worker, actual programmers can write the plan for the code themselves and solve it. Especially for unseen code or new changing syntax for it. Whenever I see someone promoting another AI tool, I always see who invested and 9/10 of the time it is funded by VCs and ex-FAANG engineers yet again on the snake oil grift. (And they know it but will never admit it.)
