@alexisohanian@sequoia@Reddit Hey Mr. Ohanian, I’m from Toronto a self taught programmer and entrepreneur. I want to help contribute to Reddit vision in empowering global conversations through communities. I’d love to work for you and Reddit for free if given the opportunity. https://t.co/Gn8AzpkhlH
@NowMZeus@SullyOmarr Agreed. I use LLMs everyday for the past 2 years. Beginners aren’t going to be wiping out the App Store, they don’t have the fundamentals down. And the ones that do have the ability would have already done so and don’t need LLMs to do it.
The whole fastify fiasco is the reason why LLMs aren’t going to replace devs. Anyone that’s pushing that narrative is a grifter. There’s gonna be a few more years of LLM💩 code that is pushed to production and then there will be a hiring cycle to clean up the 💩🪠
This is literally why LLMs aren’t replacing devs and people that push that narrative are grifters. There’s gonna be tons of LLM 💩 code in production within the next few years and a new hiring cycle is going to happen to clean up the 💩. https://t.co/zskg1UwIbV
If LLMs were capable of invention, we would have already seen an avalanche of inventions. If you think an army of PhD candidates and third-tier researchers haven't tried to pull something new from ChatGPT during these two years, they have, many times, maybe thousands of times each.
LLMs don't invent because they cannot invent. They can only repackage what is already known. It looks to a layman like they talk about everything for the first time. But it only looks this way because the average person doesn't know 0.999999999999 of what the other 8 billion people know.
@brandonbaskin Not true. LLM main use case is anything with summarization and copywriting and it hasn’t even replaced that. So to think it‘s going to replace software developers doesn’t make sense.
@williamevanl@chrismaconi@adubism@Carnage4Life Hey William I appreciate you speaking up, the non sense and narrative around this LLM hype is annoying. It’s been almost 2 years since chatgpt came out and full year since gpt4 came out and there hasn’t been 5 cracked out engineers that took down faang with their 10x LLMs 🤣🤣😂
We have def passed the turning test though, we’re at the point that a lot of individual cannot tell the difference between human intelligence and a mimic of human intelligence. That’s the turning test. You could argue we passed that awhile ago in different verticals.
LLM hype is out of hand. Like there’s no common sense and there’s just a bunch of group think. Crazy to think individuals really believe LLM coding is the holy grail and traditional programming is dead but yet major ai labs are still hiring software engineers. Make it make sense.
@anthonysheww@webdevcody With more and more people just using AI to add 1000s of loc without any knowledge of implementation detail or instructing implementation detail is just going to cause a hiring boom where developers are needed to rewrite and clean up the garbage code produced by AI 💰💰💰
@webdevcody So on one hand youre say all the abstractions of the past never gave us that big win and on the other hand you’re saying AI is that big win. Idk man, if history is an indicator of the future this AI abstraction isn’t probably the big win either.
