VessOnSecurityCan confirm from personal experience, programming with AI is exactly like this.
Janeishly@bontchev So is translating with AI. Sadly translation agencies have sold clients the myth and are now insisting that many (often younger) translators fix this shite for 10% of their normal fee. In other words, running translation sweatshops then telling clients that it's human + technology in perfect synergy.
chebra@bontchev By using AI, everybody can experience what it is to have an intern. But I don't know what the actual interns will do now.
Yann Weyer@chebra @bontchev At least interns (usually) improve over time, and it feels SO rewarding to help them grow their skills. Also, most of those I worked with were very eager to learn and get as much feedback as possible š„¹
AI is more like a Sisyphean intern that will, no matter how often you correct them, overconfidently deliver poorly written codeā¦

Sass, David@bontchev I built and published a working browser extension with Copilot. To be fair, I used JavaScript a decade and a half ago, which means I wasn't really up to date with it but I also wasn't clueless. I needed help with modern browsers APIs too, but overall I had a pleasant experience.
Bai Shen@bontchev Sounds like contracted programming now. Just eliminating the cheap interns/contractors.
Based on how long that's been going on, I don't see things changing soon. :ā -ā (
Ins0mniak@bontchev AI codes like a Jr dev right out of uni: as if they were due a final assignment and they needed to apply every single unecessary pattern they studied.
