How did you deal with your manager seeing your productivity reduce since AI boosted it?

The sad thing is that I also want to keep learning but feel discouraged that in the next year that learning will be completely useless. It’s also impossible to learn on the job because the company requires a certain level of output which can’t be attained by writing code manually. So you have two competing wants which cannot coexist and unfortunately the wants of the company win out. It’s such a weird time being a dev an me figuring out what our role is or will be in the next 2-5 years.

i think the fundamental issue of LLM’s is it feels like cheating, because it is! like getting an A on a test you cheated your way through, and if someone asked you a question on it. you wouldn’t know. i think a core problem someone could solve, is how to take this technology and utilize it to help you learn rather than spoonfeed you answers and solutions. or even the llms themselves, it forces you to engage in a way to think of the solution and nudges you.

generative AI was prohibited for CS coursework in college, it feels weird constantly being told to “just use AI”

there's this skill for Claude I recently discovered i-have-adhd which trims the verbose reply content and just outputs answers, it would be great if there was another one that refused to write code and only explain concepts or act as a 'tutor' to guide you through learning the subject matter until you had grasped it deeply enough to no longer need the AI, maybe include some measure of your progress as you go. Anyway relate to this very strongly and trying to follow the same path, keep going 👊

Hmm :
yeah... I got a SWE job at Mozilla out of college and I'm a new grad. Barely sed AI in the process. I would not have even gotten through the interview much less a month without knowing the subject matter from the start. Guess different jobs screen to different levels. Hiring teams need to do better. Too many slop coders.

As a former engineer who quit the field because of AI, I want you to know you are doing the right thing. You can have as many agents writing & testing as much code as you want it to, but you’re not paid to coordinate agents. You’re paid to own & know your product, so if AI messes something up or someone else needs to understand your code then you need to understand it first. You’re also only able to take things slow right now because you’re in your first year—they aren’t expecting a super competent engineer, they’re investing in what will be a super competent engineer in ~2-3 years. One day they will expect AI-boosted productivity, so learn as much as you can until that day comes.

Use AI to learn, but use it like a smart tutor and I always ask it for sources so I can go read the content myself. Its worked out pretty well so far (imo)

There’s a middle ground here. using AI to help you learn while you are still the author and button presser for generated code. I think a cold quit has benefits but I’d argue it’s just a decision in its utility

As you get back to using LLMs in your work, maybe consider writing the main software yourself and then use LLMs to help with writing the tests. That’s what my approach has been starting in a new position (I’m two months in so far) and I think it helps me a lot so that I learn the system I’m working in.

Yuppp dont let an algorithm replace your knowledge. Theres no shortage of information anyway. Those moments are valuable ~ aint no rush. Productivity can come 2nd

Ok I got to half of your video… why are you not asking more questions about the work your AI is doing / skimming through the code while it’s working? I also use AI every single day for work and have been for the past year but I also grill the fuuuuck out of it before accepting something ..

unfortunately the world right now is about speed and execution. This is what AI excels at. So basically making it work as fast as possible is better than making the best product
