If you don’t enjoy human opposition to you being rude, mean and grossly inaccurate, you could always just go find the nearest LLM to obsequiously agree with everything you say and pat you on the back for your bad behavior.
What could possibly go wrong?
Is that another way to say you can’t? It is.
We can all see you’re making unfounded assumptions.
Making more when your ego is threatened (by claiming anyone who calls out your baseless assumptions is right-wing in lemmy of all places) doesn’t help your credibility.
Stay mad: your opinion remains worthless & you need to work on your narcissism.
It’s in favor of the thing that’s killing the environment, putting people out of work, funneling money to the billionaires, inflating the stock market, and doing all of that recklessly.
Like basically everything else the right does.
this seems, idk, needlessly mean? like, it’s clearly trying to portray this programmer as bad, but for what? wanting to get a job? trying to improve their skills?
i feel like this is probably meant to be funny, but it just seems mean and sad.
Yeah, it made me feel kinda sad. I’m trying so hard learning to code games and I’m a 3D artist still trying to learn to draw traditionally, only using “AI” for nothing more than “Hey can you explain the relationship between classes and objects” or something…
And if the constant slop-replacement of the Internet wasn’t bad enough, it’s a constant uphill battle of mockery and harassment from these chucklenuts.
It’s so discouraging. Like if we do succeed against the odds, jerks like these will be cheering on the robots ripping us off.
… I’m glad seeing this crap downvoted to oblivion though. :)
Don’t feel demotivated. AI can’t replace developers now, and this current crop of them are just unable to.
The thing is, when you don’t know what you are doing, vibecoding looks like it works. This is either one case of this, or it’s some of the last 30 billion OpenAI raised this week at work.
meme everyone on Lemmy collectively hates. Good on you! Not limited to lemmy outside this is hated too
Sodtware dev here. I am good at it, and people pay me unreasonably high rates to come in and do things faster and better than they can.
It AI coding tools were useful, I’d use them.
AI slows me down twice:
I have yet to see an AI adopter who actually gets shit done in a way that is meaningful to anyone exept their own psychotic selves.
60% productivity loss whenever I try to use it for anything else than a code search engine.
Even I as amateur Python dev am able to notice this. It’s basically a nicer (and more resource-intensive) StackOverflow for basic questions when your brain lags again or you’re stuck with how a library is documented (looking at you GTK). The best thing you can do with LLMs is not integrate it into your IDE but just have it open in a browser tab, and never ever copy anything out of it. Saves money, time and IQ points.
Also worth mentioning: It’s extremely noticeable how different US companies tuned their models (unfortunately chinese models widely copied them). I was curious due to the whole Digital Independence things going on in the EU and did some tests with Mistral (EU) vs. ChatGPT (US).
My core takeaways:
Basically the US models are made to be as addictive and ruthlessly profitable as possible, always giving you something while sugarcoating your mistakes (even if that’s wrong). It’s gambling. Those who’re celebrating these things might already be psychologically addicted without realising it.
(This doesn’t mean Mistral is great, just not as awful. Their tiny models are already used in weapons in Ukraine, and it’s still AI that sucks the planet dry)
@[email protected] @[email protected] **Mistral: two blocked requests.** Cloudflare Insights ("is the site up") and a single Intercom beacon POST that didn't even retry. that's it. no Statsig. no tracking GIFs. no Google Analytics. no distributed tracing. no proof-of-work challenge. no `KETCHUP_DISCOVERY_CARD`. nothing. a French AI company nobody talks about is running the cleanest frontend in the entire field by a factor of roughly 150x and we're all sleeping on it les français ont tout compris #mistral #privacy #infosec
Agreed, I use AI for coding the way I used to use Stack Overflow:
Find me code examples, explain an error or give me some summaries of how something should work but then I go confirm that or test it separately!
I never trusted Stack Overflow for anything more than pointing me in the right direction for what to research. Documentation links, snippets, blogs etc, that sort of stuff. As long as I tell the AI to give me a reference, about 60-70% of the time I’ll get something I can actually use to confirm the code it gave me or get an answer for my question. At best what it does is save me googling time.
At best what it does is save me googling time.
At the expense of vastly higher resource use.
I value my finite time more than I value a few Watt-Hours.
You could go to your local library and read through a bunch of books rather than using Google if you’re interested in more power savings ideas.
The joke is this, but updated with modern memes
You don’t understand! You need this specific version of agentic IDE, this specific version of AI premium subscription, and after you let it do everything, even the code reviewing, you’ll become a 1000x engineer! Trust me, you just have to get used to the workflow in 13417 months!
The longer I look at it the more funny I think it is, but in a sad depressing kind of way.
It’s the grotesque representation of the hatred of programmers. Execs want to replace expensive software developers at all costs and non programmers look at software devs as lazy and overpaid, who don’t do a real job.
