You can hardly get online these days without hearing some AI booster talk about how AI coding is going to replace human programmers. AI code is absolutely up to production quality! Also, you’re all…
Can’t think of anything.
Playing the Devils’ advocate was easier that being AI’s advocate.
I might have said it to be good in case you are pitching a project and want to show some UI stuff maybe, without having to code anything.
But you know, there are actually specialised tools for that, which UI/UX designers used, to show my what I needed to implement.
And when I am pitching UI, I just use a pencil and paper and it is so much more efficient than anything AI, because I don’t need to talk to something, to make a mockup, to be used to talk to someone else.
I can just draw it in front of the other guy with 0 preparation, right as it came into my mind and don’t need to pay for any data center usage.
And if I need to go paperless, there is Whiteboards/Blackboards/Greenboards and Inkscape.
After having banged my head trying to explain code to a new developer, so that they can hopefully start making meaningful contributions, I don’t want to be banging my head on something worse than a new developer, hoping that it will output something that is logically sound.
Except that an autocomplete, with simple, lightweight and appropriate heuristics can actually make your work much easier and will not make you have to read it again and again, before you can be confident about it.
AI is good for the early stages of a project … when it’s important to create the illusion of rapid progress so that management doesn’t cancel the project while there’s still time to do so.
AI is only good for the stage when…

Its good as a glorified autocomplete.

True, and it doesn’t boil the oceans and poison people’s air.

Ahh, so an outsourced con
