Code analysis firm sees no major benefits from AI dev tool when measuring key programming metrics, though others report incremental gains from coding copilots with emphasis on code review.
I sent a PR back to a Dev five times before I gave the work to someone else.
they used AI to generate everything.
surprise, there were so many problems it broke the whole stack.
this is a routine thing this one dev does too. every PR has to be tossed back at least once. not expecting perfection, but I do expect it to not break the whole app.
Having to deal with pull requests defecated by “developers” who blindly copy code from chatgpt is a particularly annoying and depressing waste of time.
At least back when they blindly copied code from stack overflow they had to read through the answers and comments and try to figure out which one fit their use case better and why, and maybe learn something… now they just assume the LLM is right (despite the fact that they asked the wrong question and even if they had asked the right one it’d’ve given the wrong answer) and call it a day; no brain activity or learning whatsoever.
You probably don’t remember previously admitting to me that you never had used copilot, but at that time talked shit about it anyway. So it’s funny I clocked you perfectly as a an anti-LLM zealot – being one of the few people to respond here hatefully once again.
Also, when a tool increases your productivity but your salary and paid time off don’t increase, it’s a tool that only benefits the overlords and as such deserves to be hated.
Some people feel proud that their work got done quicker and also aren’t micromanaged so if they choose, yes actually they can have more time for their personal lives. Not everyone’s job is purely a transaction in which they do the absolute minimum they can do without being fired.
I hope you feel better soon, because you’re clearly bitter and lashing out at whatever you can lash at.
I’m glad you live in this fantasy world where more productivity = more personal time, but it doesn’t always work like that, especially in salaried positions. More productivity generally means more responsibility coming your way, which rarely results in an increased salary.
I truly don’t understand the tendency of people to hate these kinds of tools. Honestly seems like an ego thing to me.

That is not a problem with the ai software, that’s a problem with hiring morons who have zero experience.
No. LLMs are very good at scamming people into believing they’re giving correct answers. It’s practically the only thing they’re any good at.
Don’t blame the victims, blame the scammers selling LLMs as anything other than fancy but useless toys.
Carbon footprint. Techbro arrogance. Not sure what’s hard to understand about it.
Yeah I’m sure you are concerned about the carbon footprint of it and that some dude you talked to once was arrogant about this technology.
Of course you know me better than myself.
I guess you wanted an answer but decided upfront you weren’t gonna like it no matter what? Not much I can do about that.

Oh, so do you use a 13 year old PC because a newer one increases your productivity without increasing your salary and paid time off?
