If this is true, that does expose a certain chink in "AI" bubble. If these products were as good as everyone was hocking, they shouldn't have to using the stick to get their own devs to working on it and "have" to use it. Now, the article did mention one good reason for doing so, the more one uses it, the better can refine it for other users. I have been working on an in house stop motion/traditional 2D animation program and of course, using it has made it better, how to implement and what to implement. But these are the devs that are supposedly being told that they have to use it and this is a company that has a lot of money tied into this tech stack.

Most on here that can stay awake through my tirades know that I'm no fan of this, not for programming and not for art. It has been shown to have affects on just regular users, but apparently it is affecting the devs that are connected to the tech themselves and they apparently have to twirl around that "stick".

Lord save us from halucinating bucket trucks.
Oh, hang on, BMW's changable wrap tech, on the face of every building (City Permits permitting...)

there are too many people who are forcing us to use AI, they telling us that ai will do everything better and easier. But for now, i know that i better consult with normal app development company, or with professional IT engineer.
I know too many people who were trying to build up their cheap startup using AI, and all of these people (most of them) gave up after first problem when bot couldnt fix it.
Of course you can use Chat gpt if it will simplify your work, or help you somehow, but NOW it cant replace people, and makes too many mistakes in complicated things.

Unfortunately, it seems like in the tech industry they live for going from one bubble to the next and this isn't any different. I'm not looking forward to seeing the human knowledge base after this starts getting into it's 3rd/4th generation of users, or especially those that can through schooling with using this type of tech. It's been shown to be a problem long before what people are hocking as "AI" came about. People tend to be lazy and "learn" the abstraction and not what is under the hood.

But for now, i know that i better consult with normal app development company, or with professional IT engineer.

Like with some many industries. How many on here had a customer that didn't know exactly what they wanted or though of the edge cases come to them or how to handle fixes after that initial prompt output? Well guess what, that's the latest generation of "prompt engineers".

Of course you can use Chat gpt if it will simplify your work, or help you somehow, but NOW it cant replace people, and makes too many mistakes in complicated things.

I would argue that it isn't simplifying the work. I have yet to see something that it spits out as 100% good to go (or atleast at my standard). Ultimately it creates more work. How many on here love fixing other people's files that they get from clients to make it work? That's what it essentially is. Sometimes it's just quicker to start over, especially the more complex the file (or program) is.

I hate to admit I've used ChatGPT a lot in the last few months. It's one of those tools that is going to change the way things are done whether you like it or not. I'm at an age where I still need to keep up with the times to stay relevant so I try to adapt as much as possible. It makes mistakes but I catch them and tell it, hey you made a mistake, and it usually says, oh yeah you're right here's better answer. For short text it's not efficient but for long text it's great. I give it a short prompt and it gives me the whole thing I need and even if I need to make a few tweaks to make it fit my goal, it has already saved me tons of time. The prompt quality is key. I don't like the fact that it's going to take people's jobs or dumb down kids, they shouldn't be allowed to use it for school, but it's not going away so if you can't beat them join them is my take. The internet killed tons of jobs but we managed. And no, I didn't use it for this comment
