I think the actual problem is that they won't know when they've got something that compiles but is wrong... I dunno though. I've never seen someone doing this and I can only speculate tbh. I only ever asked ChatGPT a couple of times, as a joke to myself when I got stuck, and it spouted completely useless nonsense both times... Although on one occasion the wrong code it produced looked like it had the pattern of a good idiom behind it and I stole that.

No arguments from me that it's better if people are just better at their job, and I like to think I'm good at mine too, but let's be real - a lot of people are out of their depth and I can imagine it can help there. OTOH is it worth the investment in time (from people who could themselves presumably be doing astonishing things) and carbon energy? Probably not. I appreciate that the tech exists and it needs to, but shoehorning it in everywhere is clearly bollocks. I just don't know yet how people will find it useful and I guess not everyone gets that spending an hour learning to do something that takes 10s when you know how is often better than spending 5 mins making someone or something else do it for you... And TBF to them, they might be right if they only ever do the thing twice.

I have no idea why the engagement with this was down votes. So your friend thinks having an LLM to answer questions will help to learn Linux? I imagine he's probably right.

Don't knock being perpetually high. Some of my best code I wrote in my mid-20s

Yeah but the idea of AI in that kind of workflow is so that the product guy can actually do it themselves without asking you and in less than 30 mins

I feel like there are actually multiple counter-examples to this, but they're all much better realised worlds than Harry Potter

Can't put the genie back in the bottle. It was inevitable. Whatever happens next is far from it.

I bought and read the first comic, watched the first series, and called it good.

If you grew up hearing the crackle, then to have it removed is pretty jarring. Some stuff feels to me like it benefits from it because it's kinda old-timey stuff anyway, and it sets the mood better - like the Beatles or Frank Sinatra. But it's not an audiophile thing in that case, just vibes.

My man has got no money, he's got his trombelese.

Let me know how the film was, I haven't seen that one!

Mulleins always make me think of triffids with how huge they get
