I second this. It's like having a second brain with domain expertise in pretty much anything I could want to ask questions of. And while factual assertions may still be problematic (hallucinations), I can very quickly run code and see if it does what I want or not. I don't care if it hallucinates if it solves my problem with code that is half decent. Which it does.

- pdntspa 10mo agoThen you don't know how to work with it. Just like a real programmer first-pass code is meh. But then you circle back and have it refine.
- xp84 10mo agoA competent developer should be able to read the code, spot any defects in “decency”, and fix them (or indeed, explain as you would to a junior dev how you want it fixed and let AI fix it). And of course they should have tests that should be able to categorically prove that the code does what it is supposed to do.
