I'll stop you right there. AI is not good at systems programming, it's good at CRUD web development, which is where most people are seeing the gains.
- Traubenfuchs 6mo ago>95% of software development is crud.
- id 6mo agoIt's really not, though. As soon as systems have to scale, regulatory requirements come in, etc. it becomes more complex. AI has solved simple CRUD, yes, but CRUD, was easy before.
- oytis 6mo agoI think antirez mentioned somewhere he considered it particularly good at systems programming.
- satvikpendem 6mo agoDepends what it's used for, generally I've seen that due to the paucity of C or Rust etc training data vs Javascript and TypeScript, LLMs aren't as good at the former vs the latter.
- dboreham 6mo agoThis is a myth in my experience. LLMs are good at all the kinds of programming I've tried using them on, including many cases that are very far from "CRUD web development".
