    Remember:

    1. The effort needed to babysit the LLM to ensure it is producing the correct output is always equal to the effort needed to do the work yourself, and,
    2. The computer is only ever as smart as the idiot who punched its deck in the first place.

      Not really. Just going to post a comment I post whenever this topic comes up, related to how our company utilities it as software developers / engineers.

      Sure they make mistakes, but even when wrong it still gives a good start. Meaning in writing less syntax.

      Particularly for boring stuff.

      Example: My boss is a fan of useMemo in react, not bothered about the overhead, so I just write a comment for the repetitive stuff like sorting easier to write

      // Sort members by last name ascending
      

      And then pressing return a few times. Plus with integration in to Visual Studio Professional it will learn from your other files so if you have coding standards it’s great for that.

      Is it perfect? No. Does it same time and allow us to actually solve complex problems? Yes.

    How are more people not on board with this?

    Its the perfect way to train a new generation that they shouldn’t trust everything they read online

    I wonder how long it will take for Google to pull the plug of that feature. I mean, this is hilarious of course so there’s that, but I’m pretty sure that relying on the awareness of the user to fix the oopsie woopsies is not a good idea. This will end badly.

      For everything deadly answer that is also hilarious and obviously wrong for most people, there might be tens or hundreds of deadly answers that are not as obvious for a significant percentage of the users.

      I is just a question of when Googles artificial “intelligence” will kill someone.

        The actually scary thing is when the AI suggestions become less ridiculous. It seems very unlikely for anyone to try to sauté garlic in gasoline, but at a certain point these suggestions are going to sound more reasonable but be equally as dangerous. Say, what medication is safe. Or what to do in an emergency. Those are the things that are going to get people killed.
