  • I just let the Ai write all my code and spend all my time looking for the bugs it creates.

    Its not so fulfilling mentally since I dont think anymore, but sure, goes fast and lots of code is produced.

    Also its the new normal now and I think humans can only be faster if they know the domain very well already.

    Most of us are working with apis we dont know every method of by heart, so its quite slow to write code manually, even if its correct.

    Which means this entire profession will be about fixing Ai bugs by telling it whats wrong and let it retry until it works.


  • Its because people get other priorities with age. They dont care about learning new things as much, as a general rule. They have their paycheck and they value time with family or friends. The job is just a way to get money, not a choice or a passion.

    This is in contrast with young people, who often wants to show how good they are, make a career, get recognized. Believe it or not, those older people wanted that too but not anymore. They did it, but other things became more important than work.





  • What ive read, and what is accurate according to my experience, is that its very fast for creating smaller pieces of code, like scripts, foundations, docs etc. So with a small context, its great.

    As soon as you start to ask it to add features to a larger code base, it will mess things up and add code that is not necessary, and add extra complexity. And it will now be slower to use Ai than before, because now you are spending time iterating and correcting, and you may not even get a working solution at all.

    Thats my experience with Ai.

    I think it does speed things up, since it can generate syntax quickly, but its not very good code and leads to a big mess. Eventually you want to rewrite from scratch yourself.

    But I think it helps for sure. The alternative to find all syntax yourself and write it correctly is very time cons unik, although you also gain a much better understanding by doing that.

    Yeah but this is like when Disney makes star wars tv shows. Ignore what the current audience likes and use the show as a vehicle to try and tell them what they should like.

    I didnt think they could do worse than Discovery but the Academy is incredibly bad. On the plus side, Im rewatching Deep Space Nine again.
