Once the free money runs out, the AI cos may shift to making heavily verified code snippets with more direct language control. This will heavily simplify a lot of boilerplate instead of fairytales of some AGI coding wiz.

- doomslayer999 7mo agoNo to the first question, and maybe with a lot of money for the second question.
- mattmanser 7mo agoIn the 20 years I've been in the industry, boiler plate has dropped dramatically in the backend. Right now, front end has tons of boiler plate. It's one of the reasons AI hassle such a wow factor for FE, trivial tasks require a lot of code. But even that is much better than it was 10 years ago. That was a long way of saying I disagree with your no.
- skydhash 7mo agoFE has a lot of boilerplate only if you’re starting from scratch every single time. That’s why we had template systems and why we invented view libraries. Once you’ve defined your libraries, you just copy-paste stuff.
- matthewbauer 7mo agoIt seems like they should be able to “overweight” newer training data. But the risk is the newer training data is going to skew more towards AI slop than older training data.
- otabdeveloper4 7mo agoThere won't ever be newer training data. The OG data came from sites like Stackoverflow. These sites will stop existing once LLMs become better and easier to use. Game over.
- esclerofilo 7mo agoEvery time claude code runs tests or builds after a change, it's collecting training data.

- esclerofilo 7mo agoI can't pretend to know how things work internally, but I would expect it to be involved in model updates.
- otabdeveloper4 7mo agoYou need human language programming-related questions to train on too, not just the code.
- 8note 7mo agothats what the related chats are for?
- otabdeveloper4 7mo agoAnd now you're training LLMs on LLM output. No, you need something like Stackoverflow. The crowdsourced ratings system that Stackoverflow has (had?) is the crucial part.
- jimbokun 7mo agoI mean if people continue checking open source code into GitHub using those new features then they should be able to learn them just fine.
- danaris 7mo agoThis is only true if there continues to be tremendous amounts of money/hardware/power available to perform the training, in perpetuity.
