@nixCraft replacing coders with LLMs is starting to sound very expensive. Moreover, the junior-to-senior pipeline is broken now that the industry needs more senior devs for _code review_.

@nixCraft
RIP senior devs, you will now work for the man and the machine.

@nixCraft saving time? That's if it was the goal, just like with pedo in chief and Iran war he started with axis of Epstein, assuming traditional goals of victory etc are why while everyone is laughing at them, they are laughing all the way to the bank going "look at these fools thinking saving time was our goal of adopting this nonsense"...

@nixCraft HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

That is all.

@nixCraft With all the talk about pushing stuff to prod on Fridays in the training data, I expect LLMs to push exclusively on Fridays...

@nixCraft

ooh just *taste* that increased productivity!! :smacks lips:

@nixCraft When the senior developers burn out, there's less personnel to pay for.
Money = time.
So this saves both money and time.

@nixCraft well naturally the senior developers will be given targets to check it faster than they would write it which will surely not lead to any more issues...

@nixCraft Who could of seen that coming?

@nixCraft

The award winning concept is: Save money no matter how much it costs!

@nixCraft
> So how is this saving time?

Counterpoint (and unpopular opinion):

If they feed the corrections the senior engineers make back into the LLM, it should improve the results. In the short run this may cost more but could achieve significant savings eventually. Of course this assumes that the models can keep up with technology as the problems they solve are a moving target.

IMO anyone who thinks the models won't get better and even "good enough" is dreaming.

@nixCraft typical "address the symptom not the problem" management...

@nixCraft

< snicker! />

@nixCraft Hmm, and how will there be Senior Developers when they fire all Junior Developers?

@nixCraft

Gee, how could we *not* see this coming?
