That's not fair, and not what I am saying at all.

I enjoy writing code. I just don't enjoy writing code that I've written a thousand times before. It's like saying that Picasso should have enjoyed painting houses for a living. They're both painting, right?

(to be painfully clear, I'm not comparing myself to Picasso; I'm extending on your metaphor.)



You would rather debug the low quality LLM code that you know you could write better, a thousand times?


Well, I don't write bugs in my code, of course, but let's just say that you were the type of person who does: having a bot that writes code 100x faster than you, that also occasionally makes mistakes (but can also fix them!), is still a huge win.


> occasionally makes mistakes

Well. Maybe we have to agree to disagree but I think it makes mistakes far more frequently than I do

Even if it makes mistakes exactly as often as I do, making 100x as many mistakes in the same amount as time seems like it would be absolutely impossible to keep up with
