So in summary: using AI for coding led to depression, apathy, existential dread, and worse software. Not good. Add on top of that the negative environmental, community, and economic impacts of AI, and it became extremely apparent to me that something's gotta change. https://brettcodes.com/im-done-using-ai/

    @timnitGebru@dair-community.social > a developer's job is now is to teach the AI to be better, make fewer mistakes, etc. To review the code. And to test the changes that the AI makes. And to be the "accountability sink" as Doctorow puts it. Your name goes on the commit messages. You get the blame for when you didn't catch AI bugs/hallucinations. And any you *do* catch by spending extra time reviewing/refactoring LLM output is silently credited to the LLM, while being a ding against *your* velocity.
