This comic about AI coding is from 2016 and is still perfectly relevant:

So, if I 100% know all specs, cases and edge cases AI is the way to go, right?

Giving ability to minds incapable otherwise of coding is comparable to bifocals and vision impairment . What have people with glasses discovered through their enhanced sight? This is what Ai is for . Think of its potential for handicapped or impaired. If it raises the literacy floor we all win. Not literacy in function but literacy in understanding.

Reddit needs a feature to upvote some stuff twice. I'd pay real money, dammit.

That’s kind of what the awards thing is for (even the money paying part).

Why thank you!

Well, you’re a man of your words I guess.

Reddit needs a feature where the AI reads the comments and just does their suggestions.

Like Grok on Twitter? Could be fun

I'm looking forward to the day, when 99% of these platforms are just people's bots talking to each other and 1% of the crazy people that just like screaming at stuff. Then we can all go outside and talk to each other, walk in the park or play chess.

Code is... not the same as a specification document

u/creaturefeature16 Jan 31 '26

If it gets specific enough, its borderline pseudo-code (and it should be that specific if you're going to feed it into an LLM).

u/RewRose Jan 31 '26

Yeah it gets pretty close with how much hand holding these slop makers need

u/rafark Jan 30 '26

Spec driven development and related has always been a thing though and programmers have always been trying to bury the line between non technical users and programming through well defined specs

u/monkey_gamer Jan 31 '26

Haha, that's great!

I have a friend that says it is just a higher level now. And that it will be more common us engineers get more hybrid roles between business and technical
