I spent a lot of my career in the Windows admin space. That isn't true. Most Windows admins are sharp dudes, just like most Linux admins are sharp dudes. And a minority of Windows admins are slackers who don't try to learn, but a minority of Linux admins are slackers who don't try to learn.
People could, however, learn to not make bad code. LLMs are incapable of that feat because they do not have any understanding or ability to reason. They are strictly worse than a human.
Cui bono? Jensen Huang wants you to believe AI is a necessity and that we will need 1000x the energy because he gets even richer if you believe him. It isn't true, though.
Me too, but the question is how do we prove it's human made? Maybe we need a certification authority. Anybody can claim "human written code" and people like you will drool all over a clanker written code.
You're not wrong, but then again this isn't high stakes stuff. I'm ok with vibes and trust in someone's character as a measure, imperfect as those things are. The cost of being wrong is some minor annoyance that I wasted time looking at someone's AI slop, which isn't so dire that it merits a ton of effort on avoiding.
