c3r38r170360781dSecond answer still makes me livid when I read it.
"IA is very useful to code if you know how to code. It can't replace a programmer to code but it really is a very nice tool to a programmer to make it easier
So if you don't know to code and want to make Necesse mods I recommend to learn coding (in this case, Java). Maybe is something you will really like and it's always nice to learn new things"
Talked to me as if I was a f*cking 5yo. Smfh. Thinking about blocking that guy. -
c3r38r170360781d@retoor I don't expect them to know I've been coding with AI (and AI itself) since before the "chatGPT era". I don't like the jump from a technical question, to an expression of moral opinion and offering "life advice". Not the question, mistaken answer, everything bad. If you want to try to get that personal, then actually look at, Idk, my linked GitHub account. Why would you assume something like that, if it was not even asked?
"I would rather ask a person than a robot" (actual comment) I DIDN'T ASK. -
djsumdog686781dThe trouble is LLMs are really garbage. You do need to have good engineering experience to critically analyze the stuff it gives back to you. I'm always more shocked when it actually works .. and I'm always refactoring it anyway to make it not shit.
I can't stand when people swear by AI and their new God. I know one dev who is very "bullish" on LLM coding, but he also skims all the code and doesn't really analyze it. It's just going to introduce a lot of technical debt that's very difficult to debug if you're not careful.
He told me he wouldn't hire a junior engineer today, and that kinda puts everyone in a rough spot right now. -
lorentz1516681dThe problem I see with these answers is that the question clearly calls for a specific kind of person and they clearly aren't that person.
The loudest "no" you could get is for the thread to be buried without a single answer. -
AlgoRythm5032381dI think there's a large population of nerdy freaks in this industry which love to correct others so much that they need to think about baseball or grandma to avoid climaxing when they pull off a successful "WELL ACTUALLY," -
D-4got10-01280880dSame type of responses when using older hardware / software. The 'good people' of the internet will jump right in to give you the * cough * solution: 'Just update' or 'You're still using $something in $year ? That's bad. Update.' etc.

Well... Erm...
When you wanted to know deep learning immediately
+ "Has someone tried to use AI to write code for a mod for this game?"
- "My stance is AI is a tool, to help you, don't expect to write the whole thing."
- "AI is very useful if you know how to code... I recommend learning coding."
??? How come I always find this kind of guys? Is this even being pedantic if they didn't even answer the question?
Makes me remember when I was younger and had to say "Java & ECMAScript" because saying Java & JavaScript in the same sentence would make unsolicited and misguided "corrections".
Fortunately there were some people that actually answered (before them, so they actually saw the question solved and still went to post that), but I still felt I had to clarify I'm a freaking software engineer, I don't have time to learn how to code for this specific engine for a shitpost mod. And what if I had time but still wanted to use AI? Rude, entitled... dummies.
