He forgot to add "make no mistakes" smh

I want a comedy show of a Jonathon Blow and AI pair programming or something like that.

LLMs are significantly more capable at generating output that convinces the user it's a high quality response that makes sense, than they are at generating output that actually is high quality and makes sense.

Jon: Do you know how to program?
ChatGPT: No, but if you hum a few bars I can fake it!

My favourite part is when ai is trying to convince me that my good working code is causing bugs.

watching jon use gpt lol

It's useful if you're doing what others have already done many times.

Jonathan reading blatantly wrong code of his own language is funny af

"Call me ~tip --I'm the latest thing to happen to you today"
EXCUSE ME?

I like the part when he says forsen

imagine being the poor chatgpt accepting questions from JB himself

The only thing ChatGPT does consistently is ruin my programs

As with anything, if you don't put in effort then you won't value the result.  Too many people see these tools as a means to an end.  I see them as a hindrance to my own personal satisfaction with the effort I put in versus the reward I get.  I won't grow as a developer.  I won't take pride in my creation.  I may not even know how the thing I 'produced' functions.  What's the point if there is no personal fulfillment or improvement?

Holy fuck it's so true. As a programmer that's been breaking from the game since 2023 I feel crazy by the average persons opinion on chatGPT, including very otherwise intelligent people. Maddening.

Theo thinks jon is a good programmer now

i would watch him review new models

It's pretty amazing that natural language processing is solved. It's not perfect but neither are humans. Just because it's not the solution to every problem, I don't want to take away from how impressive LLMs are.

The term he's missing is chaotic in terms of "chaos theory'

no joke codex would oneshot these problems and get the syntax for jai though context.

Algorithm boosting comment.
