Great way to torpedo any trust people might’ve had in your project.
They are making the point that you won't be able to tell the difference. & It's a salient one.
Even if that were true, which it isn't, there are plenty of other reasons to scrutinize any use of "generative" AI.
Like...?
Like that it produces hallucinated bullshit and anyone can see that with any given 2-3 Google searches now. It's literally impossible to miss that if you use the Internet now.
I'm not a fanboi of AI, but also not all AI is equally capable. You can be upset for ethical reasons, you can dislike some things it produces for style reasons, and yes it does sometimes produce code that feels like it should work, even though it doesn't. All of these things are true.
But also Claude doing coding is very different than the AI answers on Google searches, and even those are much better than a cherry-picked highlight reel of bad results on a blog post.
Again, you don't have to like AI or agree with its use, but claiming the code Claude produces is fully bullshit because some customer support chatbot does a bad job is just being misinformed. You should at least know your enemy and its capabilities.
You took that way too literally
