@jzb@hachyderm.io People had to review code that was not generated by LLMs, its no different. That statement is invalid for that reason. Also, we got by without LLMS, yeah, and a lot of people were left out because they tried to get the hang of coding by hand and struggled. LLMs have opened up the possibility that people have never had to make things they have dreamed of but could never bring to life, and all these anti-AI extremists dismiss that, and its wrong. @dansup@mastodon.social

@alexchapman@vee.seedy.cc @dansup@mastodon.social LLMs generate code faster, we all agree right? Thus it results in more for humans to review. “Coding by hand” is just coding. Just like writing. You want to use LLMs for your own stuff? No one is stopping you. You’re lobbying for others to have to accept code that you didn’t even write. That’s a big difference. It’s a joke that being anti-AI is extreme. LLMs weren’t even a thing until recently. There’s no reason that people should immediately have to accept them.
