I’m not sure how AI supposed to understand code. Most of the code out there is garbage. Even most of the working code out there in the world today is garbage.
Heck, I sometimes can’t understand my own code. And this AI thing tries to tell me I should move this code over there and do this and that and then poof it doesn’t compile anymore. The thing is even more clueless than me.
Can confirm. At our company, we have a tech debt budget, which is really awesome since we can fix the worst of the problems. However, we generate tech debt faster than we can fix it. Adding AI to the mix would just make tech debt even faster, because instead of senior devs reviewing junior dev code, we’d have junior devs reviewing AI code…
How come the hallucinating ghost in the machine is generating code so bad the production servers hallucinate even harder and crash?

LLMs are not supposed to understand, they are supposed to pretend to understand.
You have to be hallucinating to understand.
I’ve licked the frog twice! How many does it take?
I take it that frog hadn’t been de-boned.
