Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Before LLMs came along no one cared what tools I did or didn't use at work. Hell will freeze over before I let a text predictor write code for me even if that eventually costs me a job. I'm the sort who can't stand any sort of auto-completion or other typing "help", much less spending all my time reviewing LLM output.

even if that eventually costs me a job I mean it's kind of a 'damned both ways' situation, here. Right? Lose your job if you refuse to use it, lose your job if you end up training it how to do your job.

That's just it though, it's not going to replace you at doing your job. It is going to replace you by doing a worse job.
