10x relative to what? I’ve seen bad developers use AI to 10x their productivity but they still couldn’t come anywhere close to a good developer without AI (granted, this was at a hackathon on pretty advanced optimization research. Maybe there’s more impact on lower skilled tasks)

A bad dev using AI is now 10 times more productive at writing bad code

does the code run? does it do anything unexpected?

yes, and also yes

can you make a profit before and apologise after without any cost?

So long as you don't mind glue in your pizza...

Try codegemma.

Or Gemini Flash for code completion and generation.
