I've been following developments since OpenAI's 2020 announcement with exactly this in mind.
My intent is to understand
- how these tools are being hyped for programming
- the kinds of things inexperienced or poor programmers are using the tools for
- the errors and failure modes typically resulting from naive usage or misuse
- mitigation strategies derived from well-known techniques of dealing with legacy systems, applied to the particulars of AI-generated code and systems.
