I might agree with some of the author's sentiments, but based on this post alone, he makes the impression that computing is all his life. And now his life is going through a shift.
The problem here isn't LLMs.
- ianbutler 2y agoI’ve been thinking about writing a blog post but the gist of it is this realization. Developers who’s identities are wrapped up in the act of coding as it stands hate LLMs because it represents a drastic shift in the way programs are being written. If being the smart dev writing clever code is the core of your identity and you have nothing else anchoring you you’re probably going to have a bad time over the next few years because the game is changing.
- uludag 2y agoI think saying that the author is stuck in his ways and is just fighting change is a bit too simplistic. - All major tech companies becoming "AI first" - The websites we use are still slow and buggy - "AI" feature bloat everywhere - Noting that the end-goal of these companies are not to enhance some technical professional's workflow, but to become truly ubiquitous, inserted into everything (how else could such high valuations be made) - Prioritization of profits above good products (enshitification) These are all valid points to bring up. The author is just saying that he wants his personal website to remain free from LLM usage, probably out of a desire for agency more than anything.
