Maybe I’m in the minority. I’m definitely extremely impressed with GPT4, but coding to me was never really the point of software development.
While GPT4 is incredible, it fails OFTEN. And it fails in ways that aren’t very clear. And it fails harder when there’s clearly not enough training resources on the subject matter.
But even hypothetically if it was 20x better, wouldn’t that be a good thing? There’s so much of the world that would be better off if GOOD software was cheaper and easier to make.
Idk where I’m going with this but if coding is something you genuinely enjoy, AI isn’t stopping anyone from doing their hobby. I don’t really see it going away any time soon, and even if it is going away it just never really seemed like the point of software engineering
