I'm a software developer and those who use AI are slower than me lmao

[-] coverupyourface@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 1 week ago

My colleagues use it extensively for coding, I use it barely and we are about the same speed but their code is absolute shit AI slop.

If you know what you're doing, nothing is faster (with a good autocomplete it's even faster).

But are you cheap to hire? Checkmate anti AI people! /s

Yeah, i find it's a lot quicker to fix AI script than write one from scratch. AI logic isn't the worst, execution where it can REALLY trip up if you give it wrong prompt.

Hell, i had used straight up AI scripts in prod because it's just 100 lines of code and I would've written it the same way. Our ERP instance has roughly 300 scripts, most written by me. I know how to code but some times? I really can't be bothered to write something simple as "take these two fields, calculate the difference, do it for all line items and write total into this field". AI won't do something as stupid as do it on change, it know something like this is for after submit.

The future is bright and I do think AI will be a net benefit for my role in the long run if this is what it can do now.

Also parsing 10k lines of debug? It's a champ. I wouldn't be able to open excel and filter by the script, user and date by the time Ai already has it figured out.

I get skepticism and then there's the unemployed know it all... it's a tool, if you can't use the tool, it doesn't make the tool bad.

People are trying to use it on larger code-bases and that's where it goes rogue and just creates an unmaintainable mess. It's decent at writing small scripts that are likely similar to scripts it has been trained on (starts failing when you start trying to get it to do more novel types of things).
