@hopland I would agree, though if we allow ourselves to predict the future, we have to take #AI alignment issues into account.
To me, this particular timeline looks quite undesirable given the current state of the art. #AGI #ASI
(I'd even argue that #AIalignment is fundamentally unreachable, but that's a longer discussion)

@jwildeboer @sjn struggling hard to remember the last time I saw nearly 2K people online agreeing on something so unanimously!
(98% right now)
@sjn
The use of AI is not relevant for quality. One produces good or bad products with or without AI use.
It is definitely dependent on the human side, whether or not her/his homework is done. Let me say that I saw shitty code produced by humans and AI, as well as good enough code.

@gisgeek I think that strictly within the software development field, you may have a point - under the right circumstances.
Sadly, these tools aren't _only_ used for supporting highly skilled software developers.
Just take a look at your profile photo - clearly generated! What do you think this tells people about yourself?
This is what I'm asking in the poll: Does the next person seeing that image associate something positive, negative, or nothing specific with it?
Makes you think, no?

@sjn @gisgeek "I think that strictly within the software development field, you may have a point - under the right circumstances." hard disagree, and honestly, people thinking that putting bits of already existing code together until it looks like it working is the same as software development is insulting to say the least.
Like, I can heap a lot of actual shit together in a river until stuff can pass to the other side and call it a bridge... but that doesn't make me an engineer.
