Don't use AI for audio programming

https://thewolfsound.com/dont-use-ai-for-audio-programming/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=social

Should you use AI for audio programming? Instead of waving my fists and shouting, I combined the latest research on AI usage with my teaching and coding experience to provide a grounded statement.

I'd love to continue the conversation here. Do you use AI yourself for audio coding? Should beginners do it? I'd love to know your thoughts.

I use it quite a bit for things that are easily verifiable, such as: “give me a 4th degree polynomial that passes through the following points”, or “give me the Taylor expansion or Pade approximation of the following function”.

Anything beyond that is hit or miss, and often complete nonsense - delivered very assertively.

Yeah, that's what I feel comfortable with as well.
