@adingbatponder @steltenpower @Endof10 this is frankly terrible advice. The failures of large language models are infrequent, but they've got an exponential distribution of impacts. If you're using Linux by relying on AI to handle a lot of terminal stuff, you'll eventually end up doing something horrible like deleting a bunch of important documents or screwing up the graphics configuration.
I know I sound like a crusty old curmudgeon here, and I know learning terminal stuff yourself is painful, *especially* in the current age where AI-generated SEO spam poisons search results. But I promise you if you try to vibe-code your way through Linux, you are going to suffer and regret it. I'd estimate max 6 months to a year of daily use with AI commands going into your terminal before you experience a disaster. If you're Ajay knowledgeable about the terminal and try to be careful, you can probably double or triple that.
To address the obvious reply: yes, you can easily screw stuff up yourself without AI, but the difference is that you'll be learning from those mistakes and most will be recoverable given the knowledge you'll be gaining.
@tiotasram @adingbatponder @steltenpower @Endof10 I agree.
Stolen from a comment on #hackernews, paraphrased: Using AI for knowledge work is like bringing a forklift to the gym.
Of course you will be done faster. But that is not the point of the exercise.
