| 2025-11-26 20:04:58 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> 👍️ yes I mean the technology when its available |

| 2025-11-26 19:59:46 +0100 | <EvanR> | as long as it still exists in the current form |
| 2025-11-26 19:59:24 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> I think it's pretty much settled by now that AI can, is, and will be increasingly helpful in programming generally speaking |
| 2025-11-26 19:59:07 +0100 | <EvanR> | you could imagine someone like this shilling AI code that is just awful |
| 2025-11-26 19:58:44 +0100 | <EvanR> | so pick your authorities carefully |

| 2025-11-26 19:58:23 +0100 | <EvanR> | "an authority" is also highly subjective... I was just caught up on this 4 year old drama involving a minecraft speed runner with a hoard of fans defending them at all costs |
| 2025-11-26 19:57:29 +0100 | <Square3> | But yeah, I get that it's highly dependent on task / tools. Here I was mostly curious on the general view of the concept. |
| 2025-11-26 19:57:23 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> oops irc, I shouldn't edit |
| 2025-11-26 19:57:01 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> * code, which prompting strategy |
| 2025-11-26 19:54:27 +0100 | <Square3> | sm, I've taken the lazy approach and wait for a signal of AI's usefulness from an authority. Meanwhile I'll stick to some low effort free service. |
| 2025-11-26 19:52:33 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> Square3 I don't advocate heedless ai use, but I think you must try it yourself to know. It also needs to be qualified - which AI, which AI-based coding tools, which kind of code |

| 2025-11-26 19:50:44 +0100 | <Square3> | Interesting to hear |
| 2025-11-26 19:48:51 +0100 | <int-e> | "for themselves" - I mean nobody wants to read the results |
| 2025-11-26 19:48:15 +0100 | <int-e> | I feel that when it comes to writing, nobody wants AI for themselves; people think (or hope) that the output is good enough to sell to others for money. |
| 2025-11-26 19:47:48 +0100 | <EvanR> | harry potter fanfiction has a different standard than uh |
| 2025-11-26 19:47:23 +0100 | <EvanR> | it depends on who is judging the quality |
| 2025-11-26 19:47:02 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <Zemyla> AI isn't good at literature or poetry either. |
| 2025-11-26 19:46:37 +0100 | <EvanR> | it makes programming sound more like literature or poetry not math |

| 2025-11-26 19:45:43 +0100 | <EvanR> | programming is funny. The body of code we have varies wildly in quality, people can't agree on what good quality means, and we invent AI but it doesn't help the question of quality either |

| 2025-11-26 19:41:33 +0100 | <geekosaur> | current AI is only as useful as the data it's scraped, and there isn't enough scrapable Haskell code for it to do anything resembling a good job |

| 2025-11-26 19:38:34 +0100 | <Square3> | I'm sceptical-agnostic on AI's usefulness in programming. It surely has it's uses but only occassionally use it. What are your take on AI's usefullness in generating Haskell code? |
