Searching for AI and Microsoft is an absolute shit show, btw. There was also a study about the code quality, but I can't find it among all the marketing bullshit.
Translation on a level an AI could do is already pretty cheap, nobody's gonna throw a nuanced legal document at an AI and rely on it.
Junior devs are much smarter than any current AI, because they know what they want to achieve and why. There's a reason why all the demos are toy examples. Actual code is messy and full of quirks because of weird requirements.
No, they are not. Why do you think there's not a single AI company that's making a profit from an actual product/service? The only ones with a real business plan are nvidia and other shovel merchants.
Thing is, it doesn't replace workers. And it won't for the foreseeable future.
Even Microsoft itself had to admit that their studies show AI assisted coding to be bad and making developers worse.
There is hardly any market where these systems can reasonably compete with exploited humans. It's just that the tech bros have nothing left to invest in. The same idiots that pushed crypto, NFTs and the Metaverse are now pushing for AI. There is hardly any innovation anymore, so the only ways to make line go up are rent seeking and investing in bubbles in the desperate attempt, that something might stick.
Obviously leftists poisoned the Internet and thus the content Grok illegally feasts upon. The only logical conclusion is to control what can be said online.
If you build a house, there's a good chance, it will survive for decades or even centuries. The house I currently live in survived two world wars and heavy bombardment in one of them. I don't think any software will manage that.
I think we (as an industry) need to be honest to ourselves and admit that pretty much everything we're building is temporary. And not in a philosophical sense. 90% of the code I wrote in my about 10 years of professional work is probably gone by now - sometimes replaced by myself. In another ten years, chances are not a single line of code will have survived.
See, acting like a condescending asshole without any substance is a task that AI may never take from us.
