  Or fire them. I think either one works for them.

  Of course he would say that. But are there any actual productivity gains in the first place or is he just cosplaying. Most of the data right now seems to indicate the perceived velocity gains in lines written/PRs submitted are actually just unnecessary code churn. The time gained from coding is spent in reviewing instead.

  But maybe Meta doesn’t do that. They probably don’t.

  The real world use-cases are not what techbro CEOs promised? WHO would have thought?

  The ”quality” of current gen LLMs limits their usage to secondary tasks like pure code generation, documentation or testing. It’s impactful but nowhere near the point where you start replacing your engineers with it.

  Harness it for very specific tasks and maybe you can gain productivity increases but for anything else its going to cost a lot and still need constant handholding
