[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AI programmers are kind of like lions.  Big cats for big game.

IMO AI has made it easier for one coder to handle a large proportion of the "small stuff".  It has also made it possible to do somethings that weren't possible before.  However, these newer more challenging things are really hard.  I can never really predict when the AI functions are just going to fail.  It's not like traditional programming where the inputs and outputs are well defined and the results are repeatable.

I don't think we needed to evolve nearly as fast as we have in the past twenty years.  It's totally artificial due to immigration.  This is what you wanted.  I am the best in the world at what I do, what can you say for yourself?  Start talking.[/quote]

AI is great for helping annotate code, catch mistakes on the fly, etc... it cannot replace a high-performing, creative programmer.  Those are rare, so low-level coding functions will likely be replaced by AI.[/quote]

It's made it much easier for me to whip out thousands of lines of code.  The AI is pretty bad at large programs, but it sure does make writing functions easier.[/quote]

I mean think of punch cards. I did a control project in assembly and then the next graduating class got to do it in JAVA (didn’t even have to stop at C and deal with pointers and memory management).

There have been prior leaps in tooling, and then we have even more astounding applications that need real innovation to build. It will probably be okay until AGI. and the LLMs are never going to be AGI, it will be something else. [/quote]
