Electronic Arts admitted that the use of AI “might present social and ethical issues that, if not managed appropriately, may result in legal and reputational harm, cause consumers to lose confidence in our business and brands and negatively impact our financial and operating results,”

What reputation and consumer confidence does EA think it has??? LOL

    Same old story: the LLM code is crap and people are having to work harder to cover for the LLM's mistakes.

    Shocking.

    It's almost as if we're rediscovering outsourcing all over again. Every time a company I have worked for outsourced code we 100% of the time had to either ditch to project all together or rewrite the code ourselves, thus negating all the money "saved" by outsourcing. I see the exact same thing happening with AI now.

    LLMs make programming take longer while also making it more fragile and difficult to maintain. This is well established by the data. The people in charge of these companies are worse than stupid, they are dangerous.

    You end up just telling the AI exactly what you want in excruciating detail, and it still might not get it right (it probably won't).

    It's more like the AI is promoting you to just write the code.

    Oh No!

    Who could have foreseen this highly unexpected outcome?
