@IceSolst Compilers are deterministic functions written and owned by humans with copious prior testing. The output has been well vetted before I ever use it. If there is a bug, a human who knows the code will fix it. This is not the case by any measure with AI output from a prompt.
@larsencc None of this is particularly relevant - soon there will be no technical advantages. It will come down to service excellence - do you serve your customers so much better and efficiently than everyone else?
@handre "population of 320,00" - that is the same size as Tampa, FL. Equivalent size failure in the US would be a local regional bank. Those go out of business without extraordinary intervention all the time. For example Washington Mutual Bank went under without a bailout
@mntruell What I don't think is being discussed is that we're in the era of constant greenfield. No one is interested in improving/refactoring existing systems. Everyone wants to start fresh. But what happens when these new systems become bloated. Start over again?
Either Elon Musk has programmed a new ad system where everything he likes is hyped in auto-generated posts under other people's accounts, or @Martina has been hacked.
We really can't rule out the first possibility.
@bcherny@karpathy What is your policy on code comprehension? Do you allow code to be merge that human hasn't looked at or is confused by it but is submitting anyway because "it works"?
@josecanciani@unclebob I would argue it was never about switch vs polymorphism per-se. but it was about effective modeling and design that led to one or the other.
And the principle still holds in the era of AI. Maybe even more so.
Good modeling and architecture IS the context to guide the AI.
