      Still useful to this day that’s true. But I also like to gamble on my code and argue with AI

        I prefer writing code that works and not wasting time with the bullshit generator

          Well, to be honest it’s kind of like that 90% of the time. You don’t actually become more productive but end up cleaning trash most of the time. Anyway, the hardest part is connecting all the pieces properly and understanding how everything fits, handling edge cases, and so on. Writing the code itself is actually the easy part.

            That’s all part of writing it. Typing gibberish you don’t understand or that doesn’t work doesn’t count.

              Not necessarily, even before having all these models, I spent most of my time thinking rather than coding. The coding part is just the final nail, that’s my approach at least.

                Same here really, i plan the structure, then have ai throw it together, then i clean up and build off of that

                I can’t say i particularly miss writing the mindless boilerplate stuff

                  Surely missing that process, you forget error handling. As you write, its consistently, what if this is null, what if the input is like x. There are many questions you should ask yourself and if you AI it, you’ll forget.

    It is called sampling and recombination, which is perfectly fine. The only metric should be that the final product masters the testing parkour. And that parkour better be worth its name. :)
