Me when I ask ChatGPT to make code but then realise that it doesn't work and I suffer for an hour untill I find a tiny mistake.

Correction: others writing garbage code but pretending it’s great because they wanna push generative ai as being a good tool.

Only acceptable use of AI in code is pointing at very early level stuff and being like "I dont understand this thing. Explain it to me conceptually like I'm 5 with metaphors and no actual code" so you do learn the underlying concepts at a level that the LLM can parse information from with minimal hallucinations. But even then if you have the patience, the documentation is often self explanatory sans a few situations where its a bit technically worded and a more beginner friendly rewrite would come in handy. Learning the why is better than learning how because its easier to troubleshoot when you know exactly what should be happening and the potential ways it couldnt happen.

Man, I'm glad I read the comments. I came in here ready to fight like, "BRO, HOW HAS MY CODE ALWAYS BEEN DOGWATER FROM AI?!"

Back in my day you didn't need AI to write shit code you didn't actually understand. Kids these days smh

If you think ChatGPT and Claude are writing great code then you’re probably incompetent or very junior. In which case you should avoid AI tools for your own growth. Can they write acceptable code with a lot of iteration, prompting, and experience guiding them? Sometimes. Can they write good code for hard problems? I have yet to see anything that remotely suggests that they can. And I review a lot of PRs made with the help of AI.

I've used AI as a supplemental tool to help with coding and it's great. But relying solely on AI to produce working code is a disaster.

Me asking the to do simple stright forward work, for that i need 1-2 hours to do boring stuff (that can be automated 😅), but loosing 8 hours because gpt do it wrong all the time. 🥶 at the and i do it from beginning without gpt in 1.5 hours

I never let AI to write my code. I use it only sometimes as a quick-search (find API/library function, suggest algorithms, help with language fundamentals, find annoying compiling problem with C++ templates to save my time) But allowing AI coding for me is a big no-no, slopcoding is a cancer. Programmer must think and invent solutions. If this ability degrades, he's not programmer anymore.

I like to use AI for explaining the code. It's saves so much time and is a bless if you maintain systems - don't mass product software.

Those ppl will suffer to find jobs if they apply as developers, use AI to understand what you doing not to build a e-commerce from scratch or you will really suffer and it will be all your fault, no AI to blame
