I remember "stochastic parrot" and people saying it's fancy markov chain/dead end. You don't hear them much after roughly agentic coding appeared.

Spicy autocomplete is still spicy autocomplete

I'm not sure if system capable of ie. reasoning over images deserves this label anymore?

>>Maraza+k7
Yours seems like a c.2023 perspective of coding assistants. These days it’s well beyond autocomplete and “generate a function that returns the numbers from the Fibonacci sequence.”

But I would think that would be well understood here.

How can you reduce what is currently possible to spicy autocomplete? That seems pretty dismissive, so much so that I wonder if it is motivated reasoning on your part.

I’m not saying it’s good or bad; I’m just saying the capability is well beyond auto complete.

The thing is "spicy" or "glorified" autocomplete are not actually bad labels, they are autocomplete machines that are very good up to the point of convincing people that they think.

Many ppl are good at convincing other ppl that they think, but also many fail at thinking and many fail at convincing.
