I'm not sure this follows - I find as team size grows, the amount of time spent on synchronization approaches asymptotically to 100%.
- jvanderbot 2y agoGreat. So a team of 100 with LLMs is still faster than a team of 100 without even if they spend the same amount of time on synchronization? Or did I miss something here?
- exe34 2y agowell if they have more slop to get through, they'll spend even more time going over the more slop to find the useful bits. imagine 97 of them believe the machine upfront and you have to convince them that the code is shit. shudders
- jvanderbot 2y agoSure but maintenance is just part of the definition of productivity. You have to do maintenance too to be productive. (On long time scales)
