    AI is actually the king of bullshit. It might give you some code, but will it compile? Probably about as well as an AI art knee would actually bear your weight.

      And the author clearly has no idea what she’s talking about, or the impact of AI on CS.

      I use chatgpt regularly to build outlines and boilerplate to code I want to write. Yes it’s code I can’t trust and almost entirely rewrite, but simply the act of it naming the variables saves me time.

      And even if it did get to the point of good code, you have to be a developer to know what it created is what you wanted in the first place.

      This is fearmongering targeting tech people by claiming their jobs are at the same level of risk of disruption by ai as other white collar jobs (like hers!).
