“Boring is good”

I don’t think it’s that much of a coincidence that I read this in NetNewsWire. https://coryd.dev/posts/2024/boring-is-good/

Ran across this on social media

"I just used ChatGPT to generate a 300 character regex for me, saved me an hour.

TBH if you aren’t using it that seems like a skill issue."

And it’s a perfect example of what I mean when I say that “AI” tools are a fundamentally conservative force

It will never tell you that your bad idea is bad. Doing even minimal research would force you to at least consider the possibility that this might be a bad idea with long term consequences about the maintainability of your project. ChatGPT will never do that.

It will never tell you that you’ve made a fundamental mistake in your assumptions or design.

Instead it will help you accelerate full-speed in the wrong direction.

@timolaine Yeah, I agree completely.
