"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

You don't even need to be an experienced developer to see how bad AI created code is. AI just hallucinates too much. I tried asking ChatGPT to write a fairly simple shell script script for me a few times and it added non-existent commands or references EACH times.
Honestly I think AI has other fields of application. It's good when you do something yourself but need an approximation about something. However trying to replace humans with it is just a sign of misunderstanding of the technology. AI shouldn't be called Artificial Intelligence in the first place (damn good marketing tho). It's more like a way of automating statistics.
All coding, bad or good, looks like gibberish to me, so I have no means of judging LLM output in it.
Except by results.
And that's where those formal studies come in: the results are catastrophically bad.
