GenAI code generation is, well, astounding. I had my first go at this today, and asked Claude to write a #Wordpress #plugin for me, including 134 lines of PHP and 23 of Javascript. It would have taken me a week to do this on my own, but it only took a couple of hours. That's over an order of magnitude productivity gain.
Astounding.
FWIW, I also asked ChatGPT to do the same thing, and it produced a much uglier solution.
@davemosk I used a car to go several hundred kms today. It would have taken me a week to do this on my own, but it only took a couple of hours. That's over an order of magnitude productivity gain.
How much extra drinking water was used in the process? How much extra electricity was consumed?
@artnacrea Claude deprived me of the educational experience of puzzling out thousands of cryptic error messages and the joy of pounding my head against a brick wall and the resultant hangover from drinking myself to sleep four nights running while I figured out that a misplaced comma was causing silent failure.
