To eliminate this tax I break anything gen-ai does in to the smallest chunks possible.

  • Yea, I just get anxious when I am responsible for something I don't really "know".

    I haven't been a full-time professional software developer for a while, but I was one for years and when someone noticed a problem with one of my apps, I could mentally walk through the code and and pretty much know where to look before I even got to my desk.

    I can't imagine letting Gen-AI (that is flat out wrong ~30% of the time) write huge swathes of code that I am now responsible for.

    But maybe that's just a "me" thing. In this new economy words and activity have replaced value and productivity.
