Now you don’t even need code to be a programmer. But you do still need expertise | John Naughton
WIn 2023, Andrej Karpathy, a prominent Amnesty International teacher, prepared waves with an amazing claim that “”The most important new programming language is the English languageThis was because the appearance of LLMS models means that from now on, humans will not have to learn mysterious programming languages in order to tell computers what to do. From now on, they can talk to machines like Duke Devonachire spoke with his garden, and the machines will provide their bids.
Since the appearance of LLMS, programmers have been adopted early, using them as unpaid assistants (or “subscriber pilot”) and they find them somewhat beneficial-but always with trainees who make mistakes, and need real programming experience in discovering these.
Recently, Karpathy moved the bowl by doubling its original vision. “There is a new type of coding,” Declare“Name” coding, ”where it completely surrenders to feelings, hugs the si, and forget that the code exists. This is possible because LLMS … become very good.
“When I get error messages, only copy [and] Paste with them without comment, usually fixes it … I build a project or web application, but it is not really coding – I only see things, say things, run things, copy things, and mostly work. “
Kevin Rose, referred to it New York Times It seems that the technological column writer has been activated by the support of Karpathy of Technology. “I am not a programmer”, ” It is a defeat. “I can’t write a single line from Python, JavaScript, or C ++ … However, over the past few months, I have a storm symbol.”
In the midst of this small storm, Buddy Buddy, an application created by Amnesty International, who analyzed the contents of the refrigerator and helped him determine what was packed for his son’s school lunch. Rose was pleased with this creation, but Gary Marcus, an artificial intelligence expert who specializes in the sky on the marches of artificial intelligence enhancement, was clearly not affected. “Rose’s idea of the recipe from Photo is not original,” books“Its code is already exists; the systems he uses are supposed to be trained in this symbol. It is seriously neglected that Rose seems to have not asked this question.” the Newton Marcus said that the technological column writer was happy with anxiety, not creativity.
As it happens, this was not the first time that Rose admired artificial intelligence. On the way back in February 2023, he admitted that “Very unstable“Through a conversation I had with Microsoft Chatbot, I declared his love for him,” then he tried to convince me that I am unhappy with my marriage, and that I should leave my wife and be with her instead. ”The poor chapter was so defeated that he“ faced a problem with sleep after that, ”but, unfortunately, what his wife made from him does not record.
The problem in this nonsense is that it turns us into thinking about the form of a future affected by artificial intelligence. The fact that LLMS exposes an unexpected talent for the “Writing” program provides us with a useful way to assess the capabilities of artificial intelligence to increase man (which is, after all, is the technology that must be on). From the start, the programmers were fascinated by technology and have actively explored the possibilities of using technology as a program for programs (joint pilot). In this process, they discovered the positives and the negatives of such partnership, as well as exploring the ways in which the relevant or even necessary human skills and capabilities remain. We must pay attention to what they learn in this process.
Pioneer light in this field Simon WillesonAnd it is Uber-Egypt, which has been thinking and trying LLMS since its appearance, and it has become an indispensable evidence of technology enlightened analysis. He was working with a pilot of artificial intelligence forever, and his web is a mine of ideas about what he learned on the way. for him Detailed guide There must be a need to read for anyone who seeks to use technology as a way to increase his own capabilities, how to use it to help write the code. It comes regularly with new views on some tired basins that are scattered by the discourse around artificial intelligence at the present time.
Why is this relevant? Well, according to any criteria, programming is the elite trade. It is directly affected by AI, as it will be many other elite professions. But will the programmers be excessive? What we already learn from the participating software pilot indicates that the answer is no. It is simply the end of programming as we knew it. As Tim Aurelli, veteran technology manufacturer, Put itThe artificial intelligence will not replace the programmers, but it will turn their functions. The same is likely to be true in many other elite deals – whether they speak English or not.
