It's still so amusing to me the amount of projects that are posted on /r/react, /r/angular or /r/sideprojects that are blatantly AI written and others that have their LLM API key exposed.

You can tell by the comments added as well.

@TeachMeCode Even the designs often scream AI to me. I've played around with a few AI app-generators and they all make very similar stylised designs.

But those AI app-generators are often pretty good at giving you a decent & user friendly UI / UX for a complex feature. I usually recreate part of it in the wanted style, speeds up my design process.

Does this tell us more about what reddit has become or what devs have become? Or maybe both?

If I could, I'd make the PM have to deal with AI code for all eternity

Almost every first generation:

Now remove the useless comments

Now rename variables to these conventions...

Now .. Just stop. End execution. I'll fucking do it myself.

I don't understand people who just use prompts and never write anything by hand now. Someone told me they've made it through 3 months of code reviews without writing code. I'm like, "Is your development team incompetent morons who don't give a shit?"

I have to refactor nearly everything an LLM gives me so it doesn't look like garbage .. if it even works the third time.

I wanna be paid by somewhere where you can go 3 months without writing code

@jestdotty Have you considered biochemical engineering? ;P

@TeachMeCode eventually you're just gonna get a PDF document for each line of code.

It's just more junior-level thinking, as juniors tend to absolutely love comments (they haven't realized that they LIE yet)
