- amarant 5mo agoAs someone with a background of consulting in the Stockholm based gaming industry for the last decade+, I have to respectfully disagree. Nearly everyone I know is very much on the hype train. And for good reason too! The capabilities are undeniable!
- OtomotO 5mo agoAs is the hype. You know, shovels are useful, they are just more useful to the shovel manufacturer than the gold diggers. But in the end it's a cool tool that made it way easier to dig holes and tend to your garden!
- amarant 5mo agoOh yeah, definitely. There has indeed been a lot of hype overestimating the capabilities. People thinking you can one-shot big complex applications with a few paragraphs of descriptions for example. There has also been a lot of anti-hype, or whatever you call it when people seem to believe LLMs don't provide any value for software Dev, basically writing all capabilities off as pure hype. The truth of course is somewhere in the middle. It's difficult to tell what people mean when they say hype sometimes.
- gitaarik 5mo agoSo you're not using a shovel to maintain your garden?!
- OtomotO 5mo agoI am, but I am no part of any shovel cult.
- bigstrat2003 5mo agoThe capabilities are very much deniable. They do not exist. Using LLMs to write code is either going to make you slower (as you have to review all that code), or make your software suck (because they write bad code and you're choosing to not review it). There's no actual win to be had here.
