The #IT #MBA #brogrammers are now eagerly awaiting for the day when they can swap out all the #programmers with an #AI code generator. So be it.

There are tonnes of better uses of AI in IT:

• AI analyses a human-written code and automatically (and correctly) performs a whole-programme optimisation
• AI analyses a large collection of human-written code, and automatically generates test cases with adequate coverage
• AI continually analyses the runtime behaviour of a production software, and re-optimises the generated code, based on the evolving patterns of use
• AI continually monitors the nominal behaviour of a production system, and immediately notifies the system administrators and places the system in the "safe mode", when an anomalous runtime behaviour is detected in the operating environment

@AmenZwa I scratch my head when I hear people talk about replacing people when the only things I’ve found it’s good for (so far) is being a much better google and making eye candy for slides. Code generation capabilities have been too mixed of a bag to use regularly.

Maybe if your employees don’t think at all because it definitely does not.

Right on, brutha!

I am certain that not all of humanity would succumb to the allure of AI. But I am afraid a significant portion thereof will, and those who succumb to AI's cheap thrills are the ones holding all the funds and the powers. And therein lies the rub.
