"There are so many issues and my mental model of the codebase has severely degraded."

Not only that, the less coding you do in general? Guess what, fixing issues that in the past wouldve been a doddle (muscle memory) become less harder due to atrophy.

Swear most people dont think straight and cant see the obvious.

Congrats. Now post this more often so the bozo's who downvote posts that push-against pro-LLM stuff f-off.

I came to the same conclusion when producing a video with Grok. Did the job but utterly painful and it was definitely very costly - I used 50 free-trial accounts and maxed them out each day for a month.

Im pretty sure these conclusions hold across all models and therefore the technology by extension.

Not moving fast enough.. sure. But to what direction? The direction and clarity of it is the hardest part.

Stop talking sense bro, you'll get downvoted.

If you look at my post history I'm essentially saying the same stuff lol.

Lol. Im a CEO and Ive re-vamped my hiring process that has nothing to do with writing code.

I test to see the way people think now. People like you would pass my interview.

Another addition to the list of really bad analogies on here.

Wrong person you're quoting but he did not foresee the benefit of leveraging the work of others to extend and build-on-top.

There's that but youre missing a lot of variables. E.g. if one of you had perfect sleep and the other didn't the individual with perfect sleep will perform better for longer.

I don't get why people try to simplify - you're removing important details that determine performance and therefore output. This leads to false conclusions.

"I think a lot of people will not like to hear this..."

Lol why? You've been suckered in and will eventually crash and burn. But carry on.

Just remember when things go wrong - it's your ass on the line.
