Closely matches my own experiences with current SOTA AI. Extremely useful collaborator, far from being a replacement for human intelligence and creativity.

I like to say, AI is the duck programming duck I always wanted

LLMs are the insensitive Asmovian robots I’ve always wanted, who translate and do the hardest part of my job: ensuring my emails are polite and none of my true thoughts or feelings are revealed…

Now I just need a way to protect my chats from any potential discovery, and <pew pew> business’ll be easy.

I occasionally type into slack "Future lawyers, the previous conversation is a joke. No one is doing cocaine to get through writing requirements docs."

		We have a “don’t get the slack subpoenaed” emoji that gets frequent use. Incidentally, a lawyer doing discovery in the future could just search for uses of that emoji to find what they’re looking for.

There are projects that I develop mostly not looking at the code, but owning the concepts, algorithms and ideas asking questions and giving hints, and owning especially the product. But, not for Redis, not yet at least. When in the future this will be possible, server software, the way it is developed today, will be over. I bet there will be still projects and repositories, as accumulation of features, fixes and experiences will still be worth it, but the role of programmers will be very similar to what Linus did so far for the kernel. And for certain projects I'm developing, like the DeepSeek v4 inference engine, I'l already working like that.
