Yes, but also I would hope that if you have the autonomy to install linux you also have the autonomy to look up an unknown command before running it with superuser privileges.

It really is big. From baby's first prompting on big corpo model learning how tokens work, to setting up your own environment to run models locally (Because hey, not everyone knows how to use git), to soft prompting, to training your own weights.
Nobody is realistically writing fundamental models unless they work with Google or whatever though.
"The bug is fixed, but we inadvertently created two new ones, one of which broke production because it was inexplicably not caught."
That's only the first stage. Once you get tired enough you start writing code that not even you can understand the next morning, but which you're loathe to change because "it just works".
Lazy is right. Spending fifty hours to automate a task that doesn't take even five minutes is commonplace.
It takes laziness to new, artful heights.
If you want to disabuse yourself of the notion that AI is close to replacing programmers for anything but the most mundane and trivial tasks, try to have GPT 4 generate a novel implementation of moderate complexity and watch it import mystery libraries that do exactly what you want the code to do, but that don't actually exist.
Yeah, you can do a lot without writing a single line of code. You can certainly interact with the models because others who can have already done the leg work. But someone still has to do it.
It may be an opinion, but pointing it out won't make me like java any more.
True! Interfacing is also a lot of work, but I think that starts straying away from AI to "How do we interact with it." And let's be real, plugging into OAI's or Anthropic's API is not that hard.
Does remind me of a very interesting implementation I saw once though. A VRChat bot powered by GPT 3.5 with TTS that used sentiment classification to display the appropriate emotion for the text generated. You could interact with it directly via talking to it. Very cool. Also very uncanny, truth be told.
All that is still in the realm of "fucking around" though.
w++ is a programming language now 🤡
You can make it as complicated as you want, of course.
Out of curiosity, what use-case did you find for it? I'm always interested to see how AI is actually applied in real settings.
I've used WSL to run deepspeed before because inexplicably microsoft didn't develop it for their own platform...
If I find myself repeating more than twice, I just ask "Can this be a function". If yes, I move it there. If not, I just leave it as it is.
Life's too short to spend all day rewriting your code.
