I don’t think this is what you think it is. It’s more like non-professional-programmers hacking together all the applications they wanted to hack together before. The Llm is just the glue.
IMO, they are NOT learning programming.
- MiiMe19 1y agothis exactly. No one is getting smarter or learning anything, the bar to make something just no longer requires you to be competent.
- Ericson2314 1y agoI wasn't really talking about LLMs, actually. I was just talking about more people learning python and what-not, which has been going on decade or more.
- righthand 1y agoWhat has been going on for a decade or more? People have been learning/teaching themselves python or other languages for much longer than a decade. Python is 34 years old and that’s a young language.
