  • Have you seen the first elevators? Or even used a chat bot prior to this? The definition of “AI” for a long time was just “decision trees” or some really neat classification systems. This is different. The hype and terrible business practices is the problem not the idea itself.

    I also agree that calling it Artificial intelligence is a marking scheme, it’s a loaded term machine learning is better. This has always kinda been a problem. Technically it’s very loosely defined. I always refer to it as LLMs



















  • Problem is the code is crap. Code without intent is crap. Code IS intent. LLMs are just statistical models with no understanding.

    They are fancy copy paste machines. They have some minor “intelligence” but it’s pretty much just the ability to associate like information. Their responses are nothing but compositions of there training data and local context.

    It has some uses granted. But writing your code beyond auto complete or extremely simple and straight forward tasks isn’t one of them. LLM generated code is not production ready code.
