1 year agoI’ve seen and used AI for snippets of code and it’s pretty decent at that.
With my colleagues I always compare it to a battery powered drill. It’s very powerful and can make shit a lot easier. But you’d not try to build furniture from scratch with only a battery powered drill.
You need the knowledge to use it - and also saws, screws, the proper bits for those screws and so on and so forth.

I’m a big AI hater and just can’t wait until this is all over. However, I’ve seen colleagues use the slop machine to just make shit they’d have skipped otherwise. Like using it to do TDD, provide the tests and then do the actual fun work - write proper good code.
But also if AI vanished tomorrow I’d be so happy and would not cry a single tear for it.
