I like to think of LLMs as informed dice throwing

Close the PRs as unacceptable.

Who'd want to work in an environment like this? It's not sustainable

Stop accepting these PRs. Ask for a personal 1:1 explanation. Make it the submitter's problem, not yours.

So then they should get 10-100x more revenue, now that AI does all the marketing and selling.

Interesting! However there is a somewhat misleading statement in the readme where it says "no code required". Well the workflow specs are in fact code. Other than that I applaud the approach.

Did they compare it to other models? A lot of this sounds like this is the first time they have applied AI to security, and they are just amazed at the unreasonable performance of a pattern matching machine. Well, it matches patterns. duh

welcome to the club :) I came to the same conclusion a year ago and uninstalled all the AI assistants that my IDE tried to force on me. Back to good old auto complete and it works great. Feeling productive and on top of things.

So you continue to show ads to Copilt, just not to the user? If so, not a fix.

This is interesting. How do you keep this up to date so quickly?

I agree in general, but how are you ever upgrading any of that? Could be a "sleeper compromise" that only activates sometime in the future. Open problem.

Sure because it worked great when we tried last time, right? Just spec it out first, and AI will churn out the perfect app. Not.

For anyone who hasn't worked in a waterfall project and would like to try: You are kidding yourself.

There is no such thing as a perfect spec. Read that again and say it outloud.

It took humanity 50 years to figure out that perfect specs are impossible, unless of course you know exactly(!) what you need. And even then, the specs are never complete.

The reality is that we often don't know, and can't know, what we want, exactly, until we actually see and experience what we said we wanted. Then we adjust. Try again.

That's the reality for individuals already. By simply using logic we can deduct that entities made of more than one individual, aka companies, will not behave better. They just make it look better by giving you a nice document that says "we want this!", only to then come around when they see what they got, and to claim "wait, we didn't mean it like so!".

That's just human nature. Not much we can do. AI will not change that.

So when some people think AI will deliver perfect software given perfect specs, hence we have to write the specs first! That is just missing the boat my a mile.

Agile is not a process but a human-friendly way of doing things. It simply says hey you want this? Let me build that and show you. Then let's adjust or move to the next thing. Rinse and repeat. Agile works because it matches how humans think and act. Step by step, day by day.

can someone verify that?

Simon just explores stuff and writes about them. Doesn't mean he uses LLMs for everyting.Antirez likes to question stuff and make them better. Doesn't mean he uses LLMs for everything.

Also their experience is not my experience. I will make my own choices.
