A lot of anecdotes here and in the article so I’ll add my own.
AI isn’t a silver bullet. It takes many iterations to get right. Yes, there is a lot of on-the-surface-it-looks-correct-so-ship-it stuff going on. I cringe when someone says “Well AI says..”
I don’t care what AI says! Unless you have done the research yourself and applied your own critical thinking then don’t send me that slop!
That is to say, there are some really good LLMs out there. I started using Claude and it is better for code than ChatGPT. But, you must understand and appreciate the code before you push it.
