AI creates almost (but not) good enough stuff really fast. And occasionally straight up hallucinates stuff that is meaningless or worse.
So this person has a huge stack of functional but broken crap, and it’s blaming X for their woes.
There’s an old saying that goes roughly “It takes four times the experience to maintain a program as it took to write it. So anyone writing the most clever program they can think of is, by definition, not competent to maintain it.”
In this case, it’s extra funny, because neither the AI nor the AI user has the faintest idea how the generated code works. So maintaining it is almost certainly 1000% outside their abilities.
So they’ve paid an AI for the privilegeunpleasant daily panic of learning everything they need to learn after the app has gone to production, rather than before.
As you know I’m not technical. AI doesn’t write robust code, is that the joke?
Yes, that’s the joke.
