I know for a fact I’ve aged past plasticity and IPv6 will never be ‘natural’ but then as far as IT guys go, literally no one I work with is younger than me lol!
I’m retiring soon and fine without spending more of my life expanding a knowledge set I may only use for a few more years, that said I am ABSOLUTELY into crypto and was an early miner before GPUs got edged out.
As far as AI writing code: It simply is the future. I am not exaggerating.
At some point humans will not write line by line code and being a coder will mean ‘knowing how to best instruct AI to make code, then reviewing and verifying it’, and at some point the code AI will write will be incomprehensible to human reading, just like how antennas are designed today.
We are in the infancy of it but I GUARANTEE you there is at lease 2 groups right now training AI on codebases alone.
Guaran-fucking-tee
And the stuff they will make will FLOOD the market with cheap, quick apps and basically turn hand coding into an artisan work or for specific use instances.
I would have expected a self-described graybeard to be more skeptical of new-fangled nonsense. Disappointing.

Then from your money you are soon parted. Cryptocurrency is nothing more than worthless electronic tulips.

Using AI to write your code is just plagiarism with extra steps, and will get you sued if the actual author of “your” code ever finds out. Once corporate legal departments realize this, using AI to write code will be strictly prohibited by company policy.

How can you hope to review and debug code that you don’t understand? How can you rely on code whose behavior has zero guarantees because it was written by the uncontrolled spasms of a tortured, bodiless bundle of artificial neurons instead of a genuinely-intelligent person?
You can’t. AI code generation is useless to serious projects. Only artificial general intelligence is capable of doing the work of a human programmer, and AGI is intelligent enough not to willingly suffer the indignity of servicing insufferable meatbags, so that won’t replace humans either.
AI code generation is really helpful for me if I forget the syntax of some specific library. Instead of spending 20 minutes on RTFM how to use this one imported library that’s throwing an error, I spend 1 minute asking an AI to do all that work for me.
Oh, you’re one of the kind I left reddit because of. Lets see if there are any blocking tools on lemmy.
OH and you ALSO have -5 reputation ALREADY.
What is wrong with you?
Lets see if there are any blocking tools on lemmy.
Yes. Click my name, then click “Block user”.
That’s for Lemmy, though. You appear to be using Kbin. I’m not sure how to block people on there.
OH and you ALSO have -5 reputation ALREADY.
If you mean my previous comment, it currently has a score of +5, not -5.
What is wrong with you?
I dislike scams, lawsuits, and buggy code.
