Once the rest of those talks are published on YouTube (usually in a couple of weeks), you’ll see that there were some other talks that were much better about conveying a nuance in a balance between the tension of “AI can do everything for me, let it write machine code” and a session titled something along the lines of “your code base is your prompt“.
One presentation, I think it was my favorite one, talked about how an LLM had a very difficult time understanding what happened in a class when the name of the class was poorly descriptive of that class behavior.
Good quality code still matters. The LLMs are based on language! Human language!
