Comment on Rockstar still hasn't offered a convincing reason for firing over 30 GTA 6 developers

  If so, is it any good?

  I imagine if one writes janky spaghetti then it’s easy to think that LLMs will result in redundancy. My experience is that they’re like having an over-enthusiastic junior who doesn’t learn. Useful when one can’t be bothered to write something with very limited scope but is quickly out of their depth on anything involved.

    Yeah. AI 100% makes me more productive and by a good bit. I used it to write a section of code today to export all the information my program gathers about a system to a json file. Woulda taken me 20 minutes but chatgpt did it in seconds.

    It also, in the same snippet, introduced a breaking change I didn’t ask for in the original code. I only copied the json part; I just happened to notice the change in the code it wrong. It added a fork bomb lol

      That’s the thing though - I find that what it saves me in time writing it costs me in reviewing. I hate reviewing.

        I’ve cut down on that by only giving it tasks that are reviewed automatically.

        “Spit this into a json”

        It gives me the code, I continue with my program knowing exactly what is where in the json and if I get a parsing error or something I know exactly where to look. TBH, though, for things like that I must have an error rate lower than 5%

        Ask it to configure a reverse proxy for a cors sensitive application, though, and I think I’d rather die
