It means cranking out hello world even faster i guess. I wonder how complex all these projects are people are proud to have completed with the help of AI.
I don't use AI to crank out complex parts of projects -- I use to crank out the tedious straight forward stuff that takes a lot of time that is necessary but low-value. Then I'm freed up to work on the hard and interesting stuff.
It depends on the value of x. I think it's safe to assume x <= 0.75, else they'd contribute negatively to their teams (happens from time to time, but let's be generous). Previously they'd be anywhere from a 0/10 to 3/10 programmer, and now they get up to 9/10 on a good day but sometimes are a net negative, as low as -2.25/10 on a bad day. I imagine that happens when tired or distracted and unable to adequately police LLM output.
It’s a riff on the “10x programmer” concept. People who haven’t worked with 10x programmers tend to not believe they exist.
I’m nowhere near that, but even unaided I’m quite a bit faster than most people I’ve hired or worked with. With LLMs my high quality output has easily tripled.
Writing code may be easier than reading it - but reading it is FASTER than writing it. And that’s what matters.

It can honestly do a lot of complex stuff. But sometimes you have to guide it there.
Nerds got taken aside and talked to about how it's not nice or cool to brag about IQ score so they invented a new artificial metric to brag about.

0x3 and 0x15 is the same value.
