<div class="moz-cite-prefix">On youtube, there is a German(1)
language video called something like "AI burnout ist real", where
a computery guy talks about audience e-mails about the topic.<br>
How many programmers these days are compelled by managers to use
AI, and their jobs devolved into babysitting and fixing "AI slop",
which, after some time, gets so mentally taxing that the rate of
finding problems gets severely diminished and things are just
waved through, and supposedly the overall quality of the code base
takes a dive.<br>

(1) I guess auto translate works reasonably well by now, for
anyone who cares<br>

<div>Hey everyone,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Touchy subject that I need to talk about. I just had Claude
AI generate a CSound program for a complex effect. Not only
did it hit all the points I gave it, but it even included some
stuff I forgot, like a sound source, but also gave me a few
ideas on how to operate it. And it took less than 15 minutes
to do.</div>

</div>
<div>I know a lot of you will rebel against the idea of AI. I
was one of you. But this experience has opened my eyes to the
possibilities. This piece of code would have taken me hours to
develop. Claude did it in a fraction of the time. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My buddy got me into this by telling me his experience. He
took a code base for a 2007 synth and had Claude make changes
and add features. Claude even found bugs and fixed them
without prompting. The new code is working and is being
tested. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It is a brave new world. Should we feel sorry for the
coders?</div>
