In my eyes, it will be same as introduction of garbage collectors. It will help to a degree, make people more lazy along the way and cause some additional and brand new issues. But over all very little will change as for serious implementations human intellect is still going to be the primary actor and AI will be disallowed.
I fear we are heading to less innovation. Are paradigms, techniques and practices that are not popular (or recent) likely to be increasingly forgotten?
Or the other way around… are more recent approaches significantly disadvantaged because of the huge inertia of existing solutions by virtue of them having existed in the training data both broadly and for a long time?
There is a difference between shipping something that works but is not perfect, and shipping something knowingly flawed. I’m appalled at this viewpoint. Let’s hope no life, reputation or livelihood depends on your software.
This is the right point to mention "How Big Things Get Done" by Bent Flyvbjerg. You can iterate your design without putting lives into danger.
"I spent weeks planning" -- using the terminology from that book: No, you didn't spend weeks planning, you spent weeks building something that you _thought_ was a plan. An actual plan would give you the information you got from actually shipping the thing, and in software in particular "a model" and "the thing" look very similar, but for buildings and bridges they are very different.
Chatgpt recently added additional personalization options that have made their voice chat better for me. I want a direct professional, no “hey” there I’m your bro fake stuff etc. See personalization under settings.
Okay, I'll try that out. I was asking it to do something like summarize a balance sheet over a few years and while the chat interface will do this, the voice interface would just tell me to go look up the specific data source, it refused to barf out numbers.
I could even get it to download the ruby cowsay gem from rubygems and run it with some provided text. An alternative is to attach the gem to the conversation or provide a publicly available url.
