A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

I prefer using LMMs for tech debt stuff like starting a readme and doing comments.
I do the real brain work and the end product looks nicer.
Sudo code (baseline comments), real code, dev/test, LMM to add more words after. Smack it when it touches my code.
LLMs can be a great assistant. it's like having an intern doing the tedious work while you get to just approve and manage it.
but letting it run the show is like letting the intern manage the whole development unsupervised.
Like the AI that was given access to prod, deleted a database and lied about it. The company also didn't have a backup.

those are the fuckups that become public. there will be a lot of major fuck up.
