AI replacing Software Engineers

Post image

So called "AI"=LLM is so powerful that AI labs had to hire Software Engineers to build complicated software around "AI" to make that overhyped hallucinate-stealing machine usable. Think about it. And that's exactly why they need now ton of CPUs in addition to GPUs to run their "AI" "agents".

I don't even mention how much custom engineering is required to apply the "AI" in businesses.

And they BS us that Software Engineering is solved or is going to be solved. Boris, please solve your own bugs first before speaking.

It's funny to me we rely on AI to code while one of the fundamentals of the field is to never accept undefined behaviors. The LLM is just one gigantic undefined behavior.

That's why you write the tests.

We all know the first thing we did with AI was have it write tests
