Comment on GPT-6 Astra in code review: Gains, privacy, and costparent

Comments

Yeah, it's the "eager apprentice" problem, common almost everywhere. Solution is to make them stop and double-check before running ahead, in software development, concise design documents outlining what the problem is, what possible solutions are and what the chosen solution is, and why, then review this together with the person, before they can move on to implement it.

This particular apprentice is also my boss, an overall reasonable guy and has more experience in the software industry than myself, so there's that. He's just not a developer.
