It doesn’t make him wrong.

Just like we can now uss LLM to create letters or emails with a tone, it’s not going to be a big leap to allow it to do similar with coding. It’s quite exciting, really. Lots of people have ideas for websites or apps but no technical knowledge to do it. AI may allow it, just like it allows non artists to create art.

I use AI to write code for work every day. It’s useful for a developer, but it is by no means anywhere close to actually successfully writing code all on its own. Eventually maybe, but nowhere near anytime soon.

I think this is going to age really badly and I don’t like LLMs but I think it will be soon. People also said that AI as we see it now is decades away but we got it quite quickly so I think it’s a very small step to go from writing fully grammatically correct English to fully correct code. It’s basically just a language the ai has to learn. But I guess what do I know. We’ll just have to wait and see
