I’ve always been curious as to what “normal” people think programming is like. The wildest theory I’ve heard is “typing ones and zeroes” (I’m a software engineer)

    Playing ping pong in an office that looks like a spaceship, while chat GPT writes code for you. 😉 Just kidding! I assume it is lots of problem solving and work around to make some feature your leadership put in the roadmap.

      Since programmers invented AI, did they make it so it wouldn’t take their jobs? I hope that was on their list, there has to be a job for someone not in the service industry in the future.

      Sadly (or luckily, depending on how you look at it), GTP is much much worse at writing code than media would make you think.

      It’s about at the level of a young teenager who knows nothing about coding except how to copy code they found on google.
