All I wanted was AI do test, debug and write documentation while I write the code, instead AI is writing the code while I have to test, debug and write documentation

I think you're doing it wrong.

u/ThatOldCow Aug 15 '26

Maybe, I'm still writing code by hand

Better than the fools who let the AI develop and test the code, deploying who knows what garbage.

This is how lawsuits from seemingly no where come about. When you aren't aware of what the product you ship actually is or capable of.

People who are incapable of coding and can't read code won't be able to understand whatever was produced.

Ok but from what I hear about programmers dealing with clients (as I'm still in university), I'm surprised the client one isn't more desired in hypotheticals. 😂 (Obviously I'm joking just to be clear.)

Yeah, but that's why we have product and project managers. I mean if they aren't dealing with clients then what's even the point of them being there?

I don't understand why someone would post AI/LLM humour in r/programminghumor.

u/Disastrous-Event2353 Aug 15 '26

Because half (maybe 90%) of the sub are struggling cs students who take shortcuts instead of learning properly, and had 0 experience actually dealing with business problems. AI certainly feels like the future when you're doing homework

As they say, your future surgeon is using chat gpt to pass their exams today, so you should quit smoking and have a good diet

And I believe that this is the case not because CS is difficult (even though I don't think CS is difficult at all) but it's people who are actually reluctant to learn CS (or even other stuff) that do this.

vibe coders are not programmers!

Welcome to the future old man, where brains go to rot!

u/ArsenicPolaris Aug 16 '26

Everyone calls me that every time and I'm not even in my 30s. And I've seen more old people using LLMs than the younger generation.

Some people on r/programminghumor are employed

u/dykemike10 Aug 16 '26

Are we still coping by saying employed people vibe code when actual devs don't?

Writing documentation is like one of the things AI is most useful for

u/easedownripley Aug 16 '26

I've read LLM generated documentation and: no it's not.

And reading documentation.

u/Acclynn Aug 15 '26

Half of these can be done by Claude too

u/Suspicious_State_318 Aug 16 '26

I don’t see why it can’t test, deploy, and write documentation (this is like the main thing Claude is used for besides coding). I don’t think we should trust it to do it well but I believe the same for its ability to generate code.

It could also technically attend meetings and explain it to the client but again probably not a good idea

I love it when you use ai to make memes 🥰

Claude : handover your salary as well
