I'm guessing that's big bucks for a tiny program too.

Yeah, It's a slightly better intellisense that is wrong a lot.

I asked it to write a sentence that ended in the letter M and it's still trying.

ChatGPT, Here's 10 million lines of fucked code. Can you fix it? ... CHATGPT: SURE!! Here's 20 million lines of fucked code. Is there anything else I can help you wiff?

Already have had the pleasure. Holy shit. Its amazing what ten lines of long ass code can do that could have been done in one line lol. The side effects were insane.

Hah so many new devs have no idea what an OPTIONS call is. Almost Every time I look at a network issue with browser code I'm like yeah it's failing the preflight OPTIONS call for CORS check. And people are like wut?

The real fun starts when someone pays Devin millions to build a system that never works, can never be modified correctly, and is unfixable even by humans at that point.

A lot of butthurt in this thread it seems. "AI" will take yer jerbs!! Guess not.

Because it didn't work. Walking out with stuff you didn't have to pay for is probably really nice and convenient.

They should say that then. "Much more memory safe languages are...." It's a very large distinction.

Ok this line lol >Examples of memory safe language include C#, Go, Java®, Ruby™, Rust®, and Swift®. Even with a memory safe language, memory management is not entirely memory safe

I think developers have gotten it for more than a year. The others. Not so much.

That's my character ratio for ppl. ( your character )= (your intelligence) / (your arrogance)

If you think this is a good idea you're likely not a good developer. Fine for jr devs who are clueless to learn but not for ppl who actually get things done.

They're copying everything into it. Exceptions, designed poorly have passwords and secrets. Copy paste. Nothing to do with source control.

It's blocked now at all the companies I consult at.

All the large companies I consult for have now blocked Github-CoPilot. It was allowed until ChatGPT came along and companies realized ppl were dumping everything including passwords to these sites.

You better think for yourself because the code ChatGPT writes is almost certainly wrong. And you'll have to check it every time yourself. It's good for templating and then fixing the template but asking it to do even basic math is hilariously bad.

ChatGPT, type an A then type = then type 3 then type ;

Yup. AI enthusiasts don't actually know how to code. You will have to check the work of every prompt result and so might as well just Google it yourself if you don't know it. It's literally a waste of time.

For programming and math, it wastes so much time because at first glance it looks kinda ok. Then you work it out and it's wrong 50% of the time. Way better tools out there for this than LLM.

Already have. Mobile too. Ad block extensions on mobile are a must. Also watch youtube on FF for same ad block reasons.

FRB went bust so probably wasn't a lot of ppl around to revoke anything. In fact it was probably his job lol.

Unexpected longest thread

I don't consider any of this actual "AI" More like a Stochastic Parrot. I use Github Co-Pilot which is helpful. More helpful because it actually targets code. It also existed before GPT. Co-Pilot is just more advanced intellisense. It is wrong a lot but what it is good at is copying the code you just wrote and substituting in the new values you want. Hardly intelligent.

No shit. I keep reviewing the worst code I've ever seen and asking how the JR dev came up with this and so far it is always ChatGPT lol.

Been doing this a long time and have been a contractor now for most of it when I realized that there is always this type of Bullshit. It isn't new. So now when this kind of soft layoff tactic pops up, I just say you don't have to renew my contract. In fact they are obligated to tell me if the contract won't be renewed at least 30 days from the end. I make as much as I can and it's adi-fucking-ose. And I get all the references for the next gig which has always appeared. Every fucking time.
