That must be hard to say with a straight face. Over the last 4-6 months I think very few corporate developers have handwritten any code at all and the “intelligence” growth from one model to the next is very tangible.
That’s true. But that’s a really small slice of the pie they’ve cut for themselves in hype and valuation.
Odd. I barely perceive the growth, and I use them a ton at work. Not saying the advancements aren’t there, I just wouldn’t describe every model release as having tangible growth.
Also the handwritten code doesn’t remove the work. If anything, it makes the thinking more difficult (for me) because instead of thinking during the coding, I have to before and after (in iterations).
For big projects I actually go back to tradcoding some to make sure I understand the system, since I’m the one responsible.
