>if the project is doing something that has been asked a thousand times
There are many billions of lines of high-quality, commented code online, covering just about everything. Millions of projects. All of Linux. All of Android. All of PGSQL and SQLite and MySQL and Apache and Git and OpenSSL and countless encryption libraries and countless data tools, video and audio manipulation, and...
Every single project is absolutely dominated by things that have been done many, many thousands of times. The vast bulk of your projects have zero novelty. They're mixing the same ingredients in different ways. I would think any experienced developer would realize this.
>I'd hazard a guess that most people overenthusiastic about those tools are gluing together javascript libs.
At this point it's comedy how often this "oh I understand that the noobs get value from this, but not us Advanced Programmers". It's absurdist and honestly at this point I just shake my head. My day is filled with C++, Python, Rust, Go, the absolute cutting edge of AI research,
and I find these tools absolutely invaluable now. They are a massive accelerator. Zero JavaScript libs or "LOL WEB DEV" programming in my life.
Yes, you mentioned those things that are documented everywhere. I do use LLMs to give me skeleton code for those parts I'm not familiar with.
How about a full equivalent of Qt that is proprietary and has absolutely nothing public in it? How is a LLM going to help with that? There is no public info anywhere.
> the absolute cutting edge of AI research
No offense but there are billions of public pages about "AI" research since it's the new gold rush. Of course LLMs have material about all your libs.
>but there are billions of public pages about "AI" research
Billions? For many of the things I am working on there are zero public pages outside of research papers. I said nothing about working with libs. Again, I'm not asking an AI "here's my project now finish it", I'm working with AIs for the countless little programming challenges and needs. Things that mirror things done in many, many other projects, most having nothing to do with my domain.
As an aside, starting that with "no offense" as an attempt to make it insulting is...weird.
I feel like this discussion is taking place ten years ago. The weird reference to StackOverflow is particularly funny.
