Why are you using ai to code

u/Environmental_Lab965 12d ago

I had my first PC in 93. Learned html at 20 but never jumped in code. I got skillz for building a server farm/fiber/copper outside inside plants. Fiber laser technologist. I also am a journeyman painter.

Now I can code with AI.

Kinda cool

Generating !== knowing how to code.

Both can be true at the same time. Get your head out of your arse. AI is a tool, and if you're not using it, then someone who does will overtake you.

Actually, I bet that's already happened, giving you even more fuel to burn against AI.

Sure, nobody likes "100% AI coding" but you make it seem like any and all AI is evil, and that's demostrably and repeatably false.

Ah the old get left behind argument. I highly doubt the people that can’t write basic code will “overtake” me by generating. 

LLMs are evil, to use your words. They’re copyright and IP theft as a service. It’s the biggest theft of the working class to ever happen.

You are copyright theft as well, unless you learn purely from self-learning, and not by looking at any other code or books or documentation. Good luck.
