I have deliberately moderated my use of AI in large part for this reason. For a solid two years now I've been constantly seeing claims of "this model/IDE/Agent/approach/etc is the future of writing code! It makes me 50x more productive, and will do the same for you!" And inevitabely those have all fallen by the wayside and been replaced by some new shiny thing. As someone who doesn't get intrinsic joy out of chasing the latest tech fad I usually move along and wait to see if whatever is being hyped really starts to take over the world. This isn't to say LLMs won't change software development forever, I think they will. But I doubt anyone has any idea what kind of tools and approaches everyone will be using 5 or 10 years from now, except that I really doubt it will be whatever is being hyped up at this exact moment. | ||
