Yeah I would add also ignoring how the training data is usually sourced. I agree AI can be useful but it just feels so unethical that I find it hard to justify.
I'm a big LLM hater atm but once we're using models that are efficient, local and trained on ethically sourced data I think I could finally feel more comfortable with it all. Can't be writing code for me though - why would I want the bot to do the fun part?
Exactly my thought. I got into software development because designing and writing good code is fun. It is almost a game to see how well you can optimize it while keeping it maintainable. Why would I let something else do that for me? I am a software engineer, not a prompt writer.
