Fun fact! There are many people out there who can help you with coding, many are physically disabled and have no other way of making rent and putting food on the table, and they actually know what they're writing, rather than hallucinating something that sounds right
@Atatra In the past I've found myself in the situation where literally nobody will help me debug a problem, and then I just ask ChatGPT or something, research the response it gives me to see if it looks viable, and then I implement the solution into my program. It's good for little things like that, but just for lil' things like that, you wouldn't write an entire codebase with an LLM.
How do you have fewer friends than me?
Anything somewhat randomized regurgitation can teach you was already just a "shower thought."
@dsm @Atatra Racking the old noodle up there is what I did pre-2022 and then some algorithm that generated human like responses to questions in plain English came out and now I don't just have to use the old noodle up there when I have no other noodles to poke at. I have the computer to poke at instead as I rack my noodle.
When you get used to driving by GPS, you forget what you neglected. It's fine to use noise to get thoughts going, but there are lawyers now submitting entirely GPT generated motions, nothing like hallucinating precedent with RNG. Sure hope there's nothing subtle and technical about programming.
Watching a YouTube video and the person has a code problem and says 'so I asked chatgpt' or 'i asked Claude for help' and throwing up in my mouth a little
