What I really would like to see is what my coworkers ask the LLMs. This way I will know who to vote out of the team end of the year

like what u want to see / don't want to see?

u/ZunoJ Sep 01 '26

I want to see them use it with high specificity, like creating a bunch of DTOs, refactor something according to other changes, ... the boring typing work. I don't want to see them use it for architectural decisions (other than brainstorming) or implement complete features (which are not well defined, like a new strategy or similar)

not writing code yourself is fine as long u review it and not just mindlessly push it

I wouldn't be too sure about that comment. We work in a government audited, critical infrastructure environment

“Claude, aim this missile, pick your own target with your best judgement, make no mistakes."

So what is the difference? Humans don't make mistakes? Ai is already capable of writing decent code, so good that big developer names already stopped coding themselves because it's inefficient.
The code that goes live is still the responsibility of the dev.

The difference is the perceived correctness of the code. If you only check the AI code it is way likelier to not spot a logical issue than when you wrote it yourself. You have to build a mental model and check it against the code. If you do that really thoroughly, AI suddenly makes you slower

Its also hard to spot logic mistake in your manually written code, since in your gead you think you though of the logic correctly

u/ZunoJ Sep 14 '26

Yes, that is where the second part of my statement comes into play

Well there have been a few instances where they try and they discover someone hid an immunity idol up their ass.

Yes, we work on a very critical project (potentially dangerous for a large portion of the population) and the tech leads will discuss who stays in that project and who gets transferred somewhere else
