Here's what senior enterprise devs are saying about AI coding.

The code you get is about an experienced junior.

The tools are can't code you out of the corner unless you know what the problem is.

It cuts down on boiler plate code by a lot.

Access to the full code base is still very limited.


is it useful? Of course!

Can it provide new ideas? Yes!

Can it help you solve an issue that you don't know about? How would you know the answer is correct?


As for a dealer, I think Jon Singo is seeing a great parallel between devs and techs. Hook up to the OBD reader, while you try to track down that 1 corroded connection. Help trouble shoot that misfire. Provide check lists on what to check to solve the issue. But the same expereince is going to come up as senior devs are noticing, it's not ready yet. Close, oh so close.


We still need senior techs with lots of real world experience to solve some issue.


As a DPA?

yeah, I see it being super helpful but will it solve what a CRM couldn't do which was supposed to help what paper couldn't do?


I'm sounding like a nay sayer, but I am buying into Ai. I'm, also, old enough to not buy the cool aid though.


What is Ai really?

Artifical Intelligence? I'm going to say, no it is not.

I see more as a great search engine that can pattern match better than google. Data is store as vectors (data base) and a very advanced elastic search goes over it.

The conversation pieces you noticed are more like a massive database on how to answer. Right now chatGPT is very pandering and will not touch sensitive social issues. The data is being regulated and censored. The next step will be sales items will be regualted to who pays to advertise in that data so hello google rankings all over again.


social issue it refuses to answer: ask it about hot topic race issues.


What will you be seeing more and more of?

Soemthing called Data Lakes. These are like various data storage pooled together. It's data hording and we will see more and more of data being stored and new terminology as to how it's stored and accessed.
