Extensive Notes: The Truth About AI and Your Coding JobTypes of AI Narrow AI*

+ Not truly intelligent
+ Pattern matching and full text search
+ Examples: voice assistants, coding autocomplete
+ Useful but contains bugs
+ Multiple narrow AI solutions compound bugs
+ Get in, use it, get out quickly

• AGI (Artificial General Intelligence)

  • No evidence we're close to achieving this
  • May not even be possible
  • Would require human-level intelligence
  • Needs consciousness to exist
  • Consciousness: ability to recognize what's happening in environment
  • No concept of this in narrow AI approaches
  • Pure fantasy and magical thinking

  • ASI (Artificial Super Intelligence)

  • Even more fantasy than AGI

  • No evidence at all it's possible
  • More science fiction than reality

The DevOps Flowchart Test1. Can you explain what DevOps is?

* If no → You're incompetent on this topic
* If yes → Continue to next question

1. Does your company use DevOps?

   • If no → You're inexperienced and a magical thinker
   • If yes → Continue to next question

   • Why would you think narrow AI has any form of intelligence?

   • Anyone claiming AI will automate coding jobs while understanding DevOps is likely:

     • A magical thinker
     • Unaware of scientific process
     • A grifter

Why DevOps Matters* Proven methodology similar to Toyota Way * Based on continuous improvement (Kaizen) * Look-and-see approach to reducing defects * Constantly improving build systems, testing, linting * No AI component other than basic statistical analysis * Feedback loop that makes systems better

The Reality of Job Automation* People who do nothing might be eliminated + Not AI automating a job if they did nothing * Workers who create negative value + People who create bugs at 2AM + Their elimination isn't AI automation

Measuring Software Quality* High churn files correlate with defects * Constant changes to same file indicate not knowing what you're doing * DevOps patterns help identify issues through: + Tracking file changes + Measuring complexity + Code coverage metrics + Deployment frequency

Conclusion* Very early stages of combining narrow AI with DevOps * Narrow AI tools are useful but limited * Need to look beyond magical thinking * Opinions don't matter if you: + Don't understand DevOps + Don't use DevOps + Claim to understand DevOps but believe narrow AI will replace developers

Raw Assessment* If you don't understand DevOps → Your opinion doesn't matter * If you understand DevOps but don't use it → Your opinion doesn't matter * If you understand and use DevOps but think AI will automate coding jobs → You're likely a magical thinker or grifter
