Have you tried asking ChatGPT or Bard to write you code to do something? It is actually remarkably good at it.
That and being an alternative to a thesaurus is about all I use LLMs for.
Lol, yeah, and it hallucinates all the time. You also use it to just write a little bit of new code, you can’t give it a 100k lines code base and tell it to actually add or modify something…
Indeed, and for me giving me a rough framework to modify is hugely useful and time saving. As the commenter above said it’s a tool, it’s not a team member.
Also many programmers write their own stuff for generating boilerplate code, with some languages like D having a strong support for it via its metaprogramming features. All while being more reliable.
Writing code is fast, checking it’s correct and debugging is slow. If some AI spits out 2000 lines of code it won’t make you faster at all.
