Who uses M$ s/w?
So, telling somebody to ‘learn to Code!’ doesn’t mean what it did, not too long ago. The reliable Lifeboat has sprung a leak. Not that I ever learned to Code, or seriously tried.
if you have ‘developers’ that are using a bot to generate their work...
you don’t have developers.
i’ve been writing software since 1977, professionally since 1984... the code produced by the AIs is about as good as you’d find on github, if you had access to everyone’s source (like chatgpt does).
if it had to create something new... it’d fail.
Virtually all semiconductor chip design now is fully automated. The designer simply chooses the specifications, and the rest is performed by computer. It’s been done that way for years actually.
There will be unintended consequences of this that will bite them in the Obama when they least expect it, and they’ll never be able to fix it because no one will understand the code, not even AI.
So now I will continue to be unemployed along with the Indians that made me unemployed?
Who wrote the code that writes the code?
Back in the 1990s we used a “code writer” to try to reduce the time for completing new applications.
It made a standard design on every application. It did just so-so OK for a starting overall code/design, but the more complex that was the application the less well that standard worked. Our programmers almost always revised the code, and maybe spent as much time on that as “saved” by the code-writer’s code. We abandoned the effort after awhile.
AI is something written by a human. What is their bias? Time will tell.
I think he is lying.
He is covering for the fact that several critical issues arose in the past few months from their using India as a programming source. Programmers in the US fixed the critical issues, myself included. I do not work for Microsoft, but one of their critical infrastructure products affected me so I jumped in.
The capability of AI doubles every four months. Singularity is not a question of if, but when.
