For anyone curious, this is the (great) original video this was commented on:
“I will revise that part to reflect the correct approach.”
Proceeds to spit out the exact same output
Unreal that AI is so ubiquitous apparently in programming, that I as a non-AI-user had to come to the comments to understand wtf this meant
So this is a list of responses given by AI when you correct it? My guess was “Things you will never hear from a client when you politely point out a logical inconsistency, an incorrect assumption, or a wild over/underestimation in their project plan.” 'Cause in my experience the response you will get, 99% of the time, is “That won’t happen.”
I thought it was “things a programmer says to a client (while rolling their eyes) after the client gives nonsensical feedback.”
I think it’s a thing mainly for hobby programmers and young students that don’t have a solid foundation/grasp of programming yet, which also likely makes up a big portion of programming meme communities.
There are definitely more experienced programmers using it. I can’t find the post at the moment, but there was a recent-ish blog post citing a bunch of examples. [edit: found it: https://registerspill.thorstenball.com/p/they-all-use-it ]
Personally, I don’t use AI much, but I do occasionally experiment with it (for instance, I recently gave Claude Sonnet the same live-coding interview I give candidates for my team; it…did worse than I expected, tbh). The experimenting is sufficient for me to recognize these phrases.
