The very to the point post [Wayback/Archive] Paul Schoe: “@dentangle You are totally c…” – Mastodon
You are totally correct.
Many people confuse the benefits of automation with a perceived need for AI or LLMs.
They don’t want ‘intelligence’ to do things for them. They want to implement a set of rules that they themselves define, to be done automatically instead of having to do it themselves. That is automation.
was a response to a more precise post [Wayback/Archive] Brett Sheffield (he/him): “I see people recommending LLMs repetitive tasks …” – chaos.social

Planning and feedback loops in extreme programming
TL;DR:
Using LLM in the software development process is shifting the feedback cycle to the top of the development cycle in the graph on the right. This is a costly endeavour.
LLM deliver output that is statistically likely, decreasing the chance to incorporate outliers as they are statistically unlikely but form the burden of software development.
[Wayback/Archive] Mumbly_Bum comments on AI is working great for my team, and y’all are making me feel crazy
Most of our tickets are now (initially) generated using Claude + the Atlassian MCP, and that’s allowed us to capture missed requirements up-front.
I think this is the key disconnect (even taking into account the notes from meetings) in understanding our jobs and why we’re not going away and why LLMs create harm in delivery.

Unlike SKYNET, actual Skynet is still far away: according to Google AI, there are t’s in both kilogram and kilogramme.
Screenshots mine as the Wayback Machine does not run the Google AI:

Interesting article: [Wayback/Archive] Stack Overflow’s forum is dead thanks to AI, but the company’s still kicking… thanks to AI – Sherwood News. with this important quote:
The complex questions still get asked on Stack because there’s no other place. If the LLMs are only as good as the data, which is typically human curated, we’re one of the best places for that, if not the best for technology.
I wonder about how far it has declined now, and also think these are reasons for the decline as well:
Anyway, the graph in that post is just a sexy version of a query you can create yourself on the SEDE (Stack Exchange Data Explorer). That’s why I included both below.
