Full title: Microsoft’s distinguished engineer says “typing code is absolutely over,” and Windows 11 is already being built that way. Nadella previously said 20-30% code at MSFT is AI-coded, and Windows security updates now include AI-assisted fixes to fight AI-enabled threats.
Except what is the functional difference? Please elaborate.
You still interact with LLMs the same exact way, you are still prompting, waiting for a result, then getting dopamine when it’s right, and then prompting again when it’s wrong.
That’s literally the same loop gambling uses, and then the AI will stack on “great job, you’re so fucking smart and handsome”.
People stop thinking, and use AI. It feels like a friend, like a colleague, like it was trained on the most persuasive writing in human history and thent it blows that smoke up your ass.
As AIs are designed now, literally no one is immune from the psychosis, the yes man syndrome, or just being human(lazy) and letting the AI do it.
You cannot trust people to think for themselves, we already have issues with that and now we distributed chatbots to everyone so learning is even less necessary.
True that. No question here
I am not “getting dopamine when it’s right, and then prompting again when it’s wrong”, I am just offloading the work of typing the text. What the code should do, how it should do it, how much effort to spend on processing this or that edge case/possible problem - still all me. Another version of the same: I don’t care that an llm also writes tests and they are green: who cares if they are green when the core logic can be still all fucked up
