That's why AI isn't really a tool here. You can buy a new drill. If you replace all your house builders with a house factory then you're utterly reliant on the company that makes the factory.
- gonzalohm 7mo agoOr you can code without AI you know? If the company that makes the factory goes down you can fall back to the previous method.
- recursive 7mo agoThe claim is that some people have deskilled so rapidly that they actually can't. Or maybe they're new and never learned the old way.
- Aurornis 7mo agoAI coding assistants haven’t been available for very long. If someone forgot how to write code manually already then they have bigger problems. I don’t think the house factory analogy makes sense for multiple reasons. I subscribe to multiple LLM providers and switch between them all day. I could sign up for a dozen more to provide GLM 5.1 if I wanted to as well. I can even run lesser models locally on my machine. This is nothing like a single factory because I can switch to a new provider in minutes with a credit card.
