- wtetzner 10mo agoThe problem I have with this take is that I'm very skeptical that guiding several junior developers would be more productive than just doing the work myself. With real junior developers you get the benefit of helping develop them into senior developers, but you really don't get that with AI.

There’s as many of them as you’re talented enough to asynchronously instruct, and you can tell them the boundaries within which to work (or not), in order to avoid too little or too much being done for you to review and approve effectively.
- BatteryMountain 10mo agoMy running joke and justification to our money guy (to pay for expensive tools), is that its like I have 10 junior devs on my side with infinite knowledge (domain expert with too much caffeine), no memory or feelings (I curse it without convo's with HR), can code decent enough (better than most juniors actually), can do excellent system admin....all for a couple hundred dollars a month, which is a bargain!
