That doesn't mean this isn't a tech craze, or a flash in the pan, or a hype bubble that has gotten huge. And whether or not the bubble pops, I don't think it's unreasonable to think that code writing tools comparable to what we have now will be around for awhile, again for good or ill. This seems like a dev grappling, not sneaky AI booster bullshit. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Feyd@programming.dev 7 points 5 months ago This seems like a dev grappling, not sneaky AI booster bullshit. I could agree with you if this poster hadn't posted a very similar article the previous day, or if the writer wasn't saying "I'm now an architect for a fleet of agents" which is definitely AI booster bullshit. permalink fedilink source parent [–] codeinabox@programming.dev [S] 6 points 5 months ago (1 child) What I'm saying is the post is broadly about programming, and how that has changed over the decades, so I posted it in the community I thought was most appropriate. If you're arguing that articles posted in this community can't discuss AI and its impact on programming, then that's something you'll need to take up with the moderators. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Feyd@programming.dev 1 point 5 months ago If I thought it was against the rules I'd report it instead of complaining. I complain because posting "I'm sad because everything is different now and also I'm all in in the hype actually" blogs 2 days in a row after agreeing not to post AI hype sure seems like you desperately want to post AI hype. permalink fedilink source parent
