Thing is, it is useful for juniors, except when they fuck up, or when they need to have learned something they're empty of any skill. There is the security issue, the code maintenance issue.. You can halve the lifespan of the codebase because it will bloat up fast. No models follows best practices yet. If you make Web apps they will eventually be hackable in several unknown ways were nobody can even find the issue because nobody wrote it so it is up to a security expert to sift through kilograms of generated code - not humanoid code and find the exploit. A hacker (or just a normal user even) can find a new opening in a fraction of that time. But, I assume you want to audit all code commits. So this is what your new profession is, and when it's not even in the correct ballpark, you have to prod it like a cowboy. It's demeaning even haha
Well, it just is. It's like having your own tutor that you suspect suffer from mythomania. I'm not talking about letting it do the job or auto completing. The student has to be smart about it. The citation is real life, you know if you use it once that it can be helpful for someone looking to learn
Nope, they help me to look up things it works well
I'm not wrong, it helps me look up things. Looking it up in a textbook just because of a damaged ego thinks they always hallucinate would be fully idiotic
It's not correct. I get more thinking from not having to look up information. Thanks for trying, it was not that fun but may be educational for some people
They do not say that. But you stay in your triggered whine mode forever if you want to. Looking x up in a book vs asking a search is extremely costly and not at all what they researched.
Seems like none of these refer to information lookup services but to generative ai
I use Google search, gemini, and local llms of various models. I don't get why you are so intensely angry and assuming I am an ai bro? Are you aware where we are are discussing this?
