Yeah I’ve been using LLM’s in Rider for over a decade. I don’t have a problem with LLM’s. I do have a problem with how they’re currently used, and how people keep trying to use them to replace their own thinking.
I think they have a place in the coding scene, a limited niche place, but a place none the less. They just aren’t a replacement for software engineers. Architecture and intention are the big differences to me. An LLM cannot understand intention, it just makes statistical guesses that are often wrong.
Line completion is pretty damn handy, it’s when you start asking for whole functions that things go downhill
