I'd assume that all major AAA games within few years will have codebase that is heavily generated by Claude/Codex, probably way higher quality than pre-LLM codebases too.

The productivity gains are just that immense, ESPECIALLY for the kind of "brainless plumbing" that a majority of AAA gamedev is

Because the sloppers ask claude for the post title too, and that’s what claude recommends.

And ”i built X” or ”i did Y” is a well known clickbaity title that produces good conversion rates on any platform

The big default subreddits were garbage 12 years ago, yes. But the rest of the site was not.

Now in 2026, even small niche subreddits are facebook / tiktok tier with low effort meme posts etc

This is also why even lowest-intelligence emoji spamming slop models from ChatGPT are a massive hit

and something like 3% of LLM userbase pays to get access to the higher tier models with actual useful thinking

Crazy how if they had waited about 2-3 years, and kept windows AI-free and released it today using the latest models, it would absolutely be well received (see: muse, new siri)

Instead their incompetent managers were chasing promotions and pushed a technology which was not ready yet

Lol fixing a bug in a simple personal blog is WAY above the paygrade of latest Claude/OAI models. It will literally one shot fix any bug that is ever found in such simple application.

That’s just how people in their 20s casually communicate now. It’s mostly from tiktok

Quick test for my gamedev project: It feels like using Fable, but faster, and obviously wayy cheaper token-wise.

Has oneshot all of the quite complex bugs / debugging tasks I gave to it which I know opus 5.0 would've struggled with

? they will obviously release Fable 5.5 soon(tm). It's same as hardware. The previously top tier product gets obsolete

What if I told you.. the average person LIKES ai slop images and prefers them to "regular" ones. The same way the average person prefers McDonalds food to healthy food

It’s a junk website. I know the word has bad connotations but literal fake news
