I don't think having a textual article auto-scrolled and voiced adds anything at all, and people who do want that can do it themselves, and have it set to their choice of accent, speed, etc.

Video links tend to do worse than text links on Lemmy, so you'd probably have been better off all round just posting your original blog post.

    Geoffrey Challen, a computer scientist at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, plans to offer a new course this fall in which he will teach students to develop software “without writing, reading, debugging, or viewing a single line of code,” he told me.

    Is that meant to say reviewing? Either way, I can't see how this would lead to good results, even with a comprehensive test suite. Security? Scalability? Maintainability?

    Have they taken out the AI generated papers? We know that training LLMs on LLM-generated text leads to an absolute collapse in quality, and we also know that AI has been showing up in papers so if they haven't, then this will be quite unreliable.

    I loved this bit, I think everyone in tech has a similar story of some kind.
