Very funny that people will buy entire domains to spout Reddit-brained anti-tech takes. Same ppl who said crypto will go to zero and self driving cars will never work.

Yes many AI companies will go to zero. This is how every tech bubble works and innovation happens by ppl trying stuff and mostly failing. But in the end the survivors will remake the world for the better. Very sad to see this sort of drivel being popular here.

Most code is unoriginal boilerplate that serves a business need. LLMs are very good at generating output that is 60-90% of the way there.

most of this makes sense but I think what would make it more useful is more focus on topics that mainly fall under project management: building relationships with key stakeholders, establishing early+clear communication channels, building in timeline slack, how to navigate management politics etc. i dont think shipping in big tech cos is significantly different to shipping a large construction project in terms of project management, but rather there is a tendency for managers in big tech to be significantly less tenured and hence ignorant of basic management priniciples that lead to easily avoidable blunders.

sounds more like this happened because the instructors failed to tell the students not to just ChatGPT all the answers, OR the students didn't listen.

this is somewhat analogous to learning arithmetic but just using a calculator to get the answer. but coding is more complicated at least in terms of the sheer number of concepts.

yet we dont ban calculators from the classroom. we just tell students to use them mindfully. the same should apply to LLMs.

i wish when I was learning coding I had LLMs. but you do need to have the desire to understand how something really works. and also the pain of debugging something trivial for hours does help retention :).
