Hundreds of comments. Some say LLMs are the future. Others say they don't work today and they won't work tomorrow.

Videogame speed running has this problem solved. Livestream your 10x engineer LLM usage, a git commit annotated with it's prompt per change. Then everyone will see the result.

This doesn't seem like an area of debate. No complicated diagrams required. Just run the experiment and show the result.

AI Coding is becoming an edge, and sharing your edge isn't the wisest thing to do, even more so when doubt is so prevalent!

Extremely doubtful.

This thread has hundreds of comments where people are screaming that everyone needs to learn AI coding.

If it was such an edge would they not otherwise keep quiet?

Because there are forces that are trying to kill the momentum.

Imagine that there was a serum that gives you superhuman strength only under specific conditions that you’re supposed to discover. Then there’s half room who screams that it should be banned, because it is cheating/fake/doesn’t work. And there’s another half room that swears by it, because they know how to utilize it properly.

You know it works and you don’t want to give up your secret sauce or make another half of the room stronger.

There are many billions of dollars at stake to try and gain momentum. That's just the direct investment from the AI companies. The entire tech sector wants it to succeed so they can save on salary from expensive engineers.
