Comment on New Junior Developers Can’t Actually Code.

I’m genuinely impressed people can get the damn things to generate working code. I periodically ask them to do something and every single time they will hallucinate.

LLMs can’t do software engineering. They can do some basic coding tasks if given very precise instructions by someone that did the actual engineering work.
It’s like having a mediocre junior developer that just happens to know the syntax and standard library of every major programming language as a service.
