human-developed

Love the distinction. LOL

it’s today’s trend! One I happen to agree with, which is nice.

I’m trying to limit LLM exposure on this one to “as little as possible, within reason”. It’s still a tool and can be used effectively in some areas.

My only real conundrum with AI coding, is totally relying on AI as the dev, then releasing it for public use without really knowing what happens behind the scenes and obviously the security of said app. Now if the dev is using AI as an assistant, and the dev is knowledgeable enough to know that things are operating securely, I’m ok with it.

Also people who think they can just vibe code without ever learning how to code for real. I’ll “vibe code”, but I’m also 10+ years experienced. I can quickly detect bullshit from the AI and I check pretty thoroughly.

Some dentist turned vibe coder will make absolute trash

We have IDEs and all kinds of tools to help us code. AI is just another tool. Granted, it’s a tool that needs some heavy regulation, but a tool nonetheless.
@irmadlad @reabsorbthelight in the case of coding also needs supervision. it would totally push to prod on friday closing time lol. But yes it can be a useful tool for certain things....n ot everything the AI companies try to tell us.

n ot everything the AI companies try to tell us

Of course not. They are sales. They are trying to maximize the profit potential to their investors. I do believe that if we could get some oversight and regulation, as much as I chafe against regulation…it’s necessary, and get past this novelty stage of AI Rice Cookers, I think AI does have a lot of potential.

@irmadlad yep. right now it's like the wild west and in large part they come off a snake oil salesman. But there is some truth there since for some tasks it can be helpful.
