@IngloGamesDev@mastodon.gamedev.place You know what aspect of development AI increases by 10x or more? Electricity usage and natural resources impact. You can get devastating consumption of resources to deliver mediocre or unusable results.

@IngloGamesDev@mastodon.gamedev.place Writer has been a programmer for 28 years. I've been one for 53. If there were a way to make me faster, I'd use it. But he's right: "This whole thing is bullshit." In those 53 years, I've also been a lawyer and an elected politician. No one is better at recognizing bullshit than I am. When Elizabeth Holmes said she could test one drop of blood in a day and get the results vials full took weeks to produce, it was bullshit. AI coding tools are the same bullshit that was.

@IngloGamesDev@mastodon.gamedev.place This is kinda hilarious. My spouse might not have done it Monday, but she did write a fretboard learning tool this year https://mastodon.social/@obscurestar/113846684590869073 we did a video game (but it broke, because engines never sit still) and just today she built a telescope tripod out of scrap. Who needs AI? (Well, I'd very much like search tools to not suck, but that seems to be an impossible task now a days.)

@IngloGamesDev@mastodon.gamedev.place I just had a non-programner friend telling me how he vibe coded a neat tool for himself and I wondered how ppl like him fit this picture. Then I remembered an old saying about the difference between programming vs software dev is that the latter involves people and time (I'd appreciaye if someone could point me to the original). So I guess there are many hidden, personal projects from ppl who don't even know GitHub exists. Do I think this worth the cost? No. But it's still a pretty remarkable thing!

@IngloGamesDev@mastodon.gamedev.place this is a great article, I wish it wasn’t on substack so I could boost it

@IngloGamesDev@mastodon.gamedev.place If a company had actually developed tech with the programming productivity improvements they claim, what they are doing with it (selling it at a loss) would be insane. The smart move would be to keep it to yourself and become a top tier software development company. If Copilot delivered, why the hell would MS let their competitors use it?
