It’s almost like working with shitty engineers.
Shitty engineers that can do grunt work, don't complain, don't get distracted and are great at doing 90% of the documentation.
But yes. Still shitty engineers.
Great management consultants though.
I give instructions to AI like I would to a brand new junior programmer, and it gives me back code that's usually better than a brand new junior programmer. It still needs tweaking, but it saves me a lot of time. The drawback is that coding knowledge atrophy occurs pretty rapidly, and I'm worried that I'm going to forget how to write code without the AI. I guess that I don't really need to worry about that, since I doubt AI is going anywhere anytime soon.
