have they tried writing better prompts? my lived experience says that because it works for me, it should work as long as you write good prompts. prompts prompts prompts. I am very smart. /s
I'm reminded of the guy in a previous thread who claimed LLMs helped him as a rubber duck partner. You know - the troubleshooting technique named for its efficacy when working with a bath toy.
Prompt engineering is the same as software engineering, right?
Someone will have the "brilliant" idea to fix this by having chatbots review code in 5... 4... 3...
Welcome to my new startup where we train LLMs on compiled binaries. Now you can just prompt and get a complete executable, no coding knowledge needed. We value our company at $5b, product launch date indeterminate
I could swear I’ve seen a shartup with this pitch
will try check tomorrow, rn I’m enjoying the sounds of the first thunderstorm of the season
Thanks now you've sent me down the rabbit hole since I searched for this and clicked on the first ad: coderabbit.ai
One of the code reviews they feature on their homepage involves poor CodeRabbit misspelling a variable name, and then suggesting the exact opposite code of what would be correct for a "null check" (Suggesting
if (object.field) return;when it should have suggestedif (!object.field) return;or something like that).You'd think AI companies would have wised up by this point and gone through all their pre-recorded demos with a fine comb so that
marksusers at least make it past the homepage, but I guess not.Aside: It's not really accurate to describe
if (object.field)as a null check in JS since other things like empty strings will fail the check, but maybe CodeRabbit is just an adorable baby JS reviewer!Aside: the example was in a .jsx file. Does that stand for JavaScript XML? because oh lord that sounds cursed
"When asked about buggy AI [code], a common refrain is ‘it is not my code,’ meaning they feel less accountable because they didn’t write it.”
Strong they cut all my deadlines in half and gave me an OpenAI API key, so fuck it energy.
He stressed that this is not from want of care on the developer’s part but rather a lack of interest in “copy-editing code” on top of quality control processes being unprepared for the speed of AI adoption.
You don't say.
For some reason when I read this I am reminded of our "highly efficient rail" which often derails
LLMs will save us from having to work on features now that we nearly ironed out all the issues introduced by Kubernetes.
"i don't know what happened, the truck was cruising just fine when we put the toddler on the wheel"
Buahahahaha, lazy fucks just do the work
as I have said here some time ago, these chucklefucks are a goldmine waiting to happen. just not the kind of gold they think.
Oh no! Spicy autocomplete can't proofread or understand what it's spitting out?!
