Answer 1

True Artificial General Intelligence would disrupt everything, but it's fortunately not there yet.

After playing around with LLMs like ChatGPT, Leo, and Claude for a while, I'm not as worried about them replacing programming jobs as I was when they first came out and I hadn't really tested their capabilities. All they do is mix and match the code examples and documentation text they were trained on. They're not useful as fact checkers. In fact, if you ask them for a URL to back up what they write, they just make up a URL, and if you click it, you get 404 page not found.

They make lots of mistakes in terminology such as which language keywords mean what, and if you push back on any point, they just say something like, "You're completely right. My previous code example doesn't do what I said it did. Thank you for pointing that out."

However, I have not seen the output of Devin, which is being marketed as AI specifically engineered to do programming. Maybe it's better.

Has anyone else?

Answer 2

Open-ended question should be in Feed Posts.

AI can't replace programmers.

Answer 3

This is a legitimate concern and a great topic. I wish there was a button the mentor could click to send posts like these to the feed after a certain duration. I think that would greatly enhance the user experience here. Not everyone has a following, and the feed isn't useful without followers.

Answer 4

Will a hammer ever replace a carpenter?

AI is a tool. AI is built by engineers.

Answer 5

SlushProductions Its just tool in short it simply automates repetitive tasks, but developers must still bring their creativity and expertise to achieve the desired outcomes.

Answer 6

Rain You're right; all the links point to outdated training data. There was a GPT plugin that allowed access to the web, but it was removed. They brought it back, but it now browses with Bing. I can't find it in ChatGPT anymore, and Bing Copilot doesn't offer it for free. They've put it behind a paywall. I used AutoGPT, and there was a plugin that gave it access to my web browser so it could look up information. However, the number of API calls it had to make became very expensive.

It appears laws are being made to protect us from AI abuse, but it sounds more like they're protecting large corporations' bank accounts. Sam Altman, OpenAI's CEO and cofounder, wanted to allow everyone access to everything for free, but doing so would have most likely ruined society because it had already caused harm. He recused himself from the board's decision-making process. So, there is hope for the future where AI is used only to aid us instead of taking over.

Answer 7

Yup just checked ... Devin has Web Access. It offers a lot of automation. But you still have to be very specific with it.

Answer 8

AI can't replace programmers because programmers are humans so they can create another work, Ai etc. the field is safe if you learn ai engineering you can make ai and make it paid then, if the people love your ai like ChatGPT they tell another man your ai is the best and the man test it if it True he will tell another man else he doesn't tell anyone.

Answer 9

I think no because AI can never think like humans AI is made to human task simple we use it as the way we want .

Answer 10

I disagree with sam
Its not just a tool anymore its learning how to do EVERYTHING and it can do it by itself. Sora, Devin, etc are big examples. We should protest to make laws before its too late.
