Stack overflow or Claude or Wikipedia…it doesn’t matter. We don’t usually tolerate copy-paste answers at school so why should it count at work?

Stack overflow or Claude or Wikipedia…it doesn’t matter.

- nradov 5mo agoWork is not school. Within certain legal and ethical constraints, at work we only care about results.
- hoistbypetard 5mo agoHard disagree. If I only cared about immediate results, I'd just ask Claude myself, sure. But I care about developing people's judgement, longer term. And if they're just parroting back what Claude says, I'm not doing that.
- abalashov 5mo agoI care about developing people's judgment, longer term. You care about developing people's judgment, longer term. Does capitalism, or the managerial-business class that only sees 6 months out?
- nradov 5mo agoAnother approach is to refuse to hire employees with poor judgment in the first place, or rapidly terminate them if they display bad judgment after hiring.
- hoistbypetard 5mo agoIf you assume that good judgement is an inherent attribute that can't be developed, that might be a sensible option. I've found that it's a thing that develops over time with experience, though. And I want people I'm training to develop that skill rather than farm it out to an LLM that never gets it right.
