Oh sweet irony… I remember butting heads with techbros on this very platform about their misguided intuition that people criticizing LLMs were going to be left out (assuming I or others had never tried them).
Yeah, I write enough bugs on my own, I’ll pass on the 41% more, thank you very much.
Sure, I know this study needs to be replicated and should not be considered to be a holy truth… But the issues with the tech do pile up, and they’re not just ethical concerns about resource usage. There’s a new study like this one every week.
I got used to using Copilot for a project that had it be accessible for very junior programmers (thus: lots of explanation in comments). It worked great, creating a chunk of boilerplate for each described function.
It’s absolutely useless in the real world. Code is 5+ years old, crosses over various coding conventions and does not use the stuff seen as default on StackOverflow.
Copilot couldn’t figure out what I wanted. Intellij’s long list of internal If-statements does the job though, and saves on a few households of power consumption.
