Lutris maintainer use AI generated code for some time now. The maintainer also removed the co-authorship of Claude, so no one knows which code was generated by AI.
Anyway, I was suspecting that this “issue” might come up so I’ve removed the Claude co-authorship from the commits a few days ago. So good luck figuring out what’s generated and what is not.
Like, I agree with you about open source burnout, but it feels weird to make it a dick measuring contest with writers, as a writer myself.
writers are arguably suffering more. not because llms can replace them at all to the degree they can junior programmers, but because the people making the decisions believe they can.
also, i wasn’t the one who brought it up :P
LLMs also aren’t good at replacing junior programmers, but the people in charge believe that they can do that too.
well they are, in that they produce bad code that has to be vetted thoroughly and they don’t know git.
It doesn’t take that long to reach a junior dev basic Git, and they can often explain their bad code. Plus, junior devs turn into senior devs, and LLMs don’t.
junior devs don’t turn into senior devs if they’re replaced with llms though :(
You didn’t bring it up but you’re the one who implied it was a contest of who suffers more. Your comment was worded very much in a way that made it sound like they had it worse than writers, when the original commenter was just stating that all creatives experience burnout (not a comparison)
it wasn’t really about suffering more, the point was that it’s more out in the open and more directly connecting with people. i’m sure andy weir had the same issues with the martian since it was written in public.
