It is time to acknowledge that AI coding does not actually work.

ok, you think it's a promising field and you want to explore it, fine. Go for it.

Just stop pretending that what these models are currently doing is good enough to replace programmers.

I use LLMs a lot, even for explaining documentation.

I used to use them for writing _some_ code, but I have never ever gotten a code sample over 10 lines that was not in need of heavy modifications to make it work correctly.

Some people are pretending to write hundreds of lines of code with LLMs, even entire applications. All I have to say is "lol".
