AI Made this Neovim config and I'm scared now

[@Rid1FZ]

I just love you man. I was using neovim from 2022, but only used neovim distributions like "LunarVIm", and "AstroNvim". A month ago, I found one of your videos from "Neovim for Newbs" series, and after watching that, I decided to reconfigure my whole neovim from scratch without using any distribution. Now I have a fully functional and almost "perfect" neovim config. Thanks Nerd...

Came out of curiosity what AI might come up with, stayed for your on-point conclusion of the role of AI in the current developer landscape! In the end, not a lot changes: Persistence will get juniors through mid-level towards being seniors! Working as a developer just not such a gold mine than it used to be. But employers will eventually learn that replacing junior and mid-level devs by AI and only keeping a handful of seniors is _not_ sustainable at all!

[@typecraft_dev]

right. I am not sure where things land from here but that is exactly how I was feeling

[@TurntableTV]

Yeah... I don't know how those employers expect to develop new engineering talent without having junior developers. It's not like senior engineers grow on trees. As much as AI will make our jobs a little bit easier, I do think that at the same time it will introduce all sorts of problems. There will be a lot of devs that will rely on it and those people will blindly trust the output or the results. You can clearly see the problem in that.

[@tmendoza6]

When solving math problems, I never ask the AI to provide direct solutions. Instead, I present the context and question along with my own solution attempt. This approach has yielded excellent feedback and often reveals insights I hadn't considered. The only drawback is that it takes more time to construct such detailed questions.

How did you know I have a split keyboard!?!?!? (looking behind myself suspiciously...)

I see it

[@kyleMcBurnett]

I'm just getting into the neovim scene. I was an android dev so android satisfied my editor needs. Now I work with a lot more languages on a daily basis. I needed a work flow to search a repo for a snippet of code. I use chatgpt to make an awsome neovim function. First it creates a fzf window with all the languages ripgrep can filter on, so I can select one language. then a query for ripgrep. then it sends all the results to fzf again for searching and preview context

AI should have said "Don't delete your existing config as I may hallucinate"

[@shadyKING057]

Glad you're back. I thought that you decided to stop your KZbin channel (I don't know why I thought so confidently about it, the last video was not too long ago) With you, I'll have only the most modern and fresh software and configs on my computer. Love your videos!

exactly!

@@typecraft_dev I understand you 'have' to go with the ai show tho. Good channel, I like your casual style

[@filipepinho3319]

Once I gave chatGPT on purpose a infinite loop cicle with some math operation inside and after the loop a print... And I asked what would be the final outcome of that code... He fixed the loop and gave me an answer... I was honestly trying to see if it did crash or something xD

[@augustus5789]

[@SantoshShrestha1111]

that was some good content .I am hoping we will get such content every day , every week

[@thisbridgehascables]

I can kinda imagine a future where we'll have AI built applications and applications built and maintained by actual coders. Similar to big box stores verse local mom and pop shops/small businesses. I haven't seen much discussion on AI's security in using your keys, tokens, credit cards, and identity to go out and get the necessary storage, cloud service, purchase what you might need for said application projects. Also how secure is the models not sharing that secure data amongst others? As AI is integrated more and more.. I feel cyber security is going to explode.

[@ProfShibe]

I don't know about the junior dev thing tbh. Big companies, especially when they can produce more output faster, will probably start hiring more, you can only have so many seniors. And if the seniors train more juniors you have exponentially more output. It's probably a dip in jobs for a bit then a massive spike. Love your videos btw :D

[@VANTYCSolutions]

AI is an intelligence without intelligence itself, it is one more tool in our toolbox and it is useful to that extent. I'm going to test what AI can do for my NeoVim configuration with Java and the debugger for this language soon. I need to stop using Intellij, and AI will help me with that goal. Thanks great video.

[@batboy49]

I thought ChatGPT was akshuuually going to do something useful, but it needs a lot of hand holding and babysitting. Don't get me wrong, I love AI and use it all the time, it has improved my ability to move faster. Didn't know 5hit about lua, and been using AI to learn a bit day by day

[@SashikaSandeepa]

hi typecraft nice to see you again

Junior Devs will inevitably grow up to be Senior Devs. And Senior Devs will eventually be yelling at the clouds. It's a story as old as time.

a little question for nvim users: if I want to use nvim for creating scripts for unity (engine), I understand that having syntax highlighting and auto completion for c# isn't a big deal, but will LSP and stuff work for completion and suggestions about unity stuff? from what I googled there is couple of plugins, but this topic isn't very popular around nvim. does anyone have any info about it?

Just tried this, then I said "packer isn't maintained anymore, could you use lazy instead?"...and it did...I'm lazy, that's why I use AI a lot. I have knowledge and experience too, I use AI instead of googling programming questions because I end up on Stack Exchange where developers are arguing which is the best way to do something, rather than giving me the solution. Anyway, I really want to use Neovim, but my IDE feels more comfortable, so I'll keep dipping my toe into Neovim, maybe I'll like it one day...Yeah I can type really fast too, BTW Also: I've just noticed I can't subscribe to your channel unless I give you/youtube money...good job I'm a developer and can by-pass all that capitalism nonsense. No disrespect!... just that I'm retired, so would rather buy food and pay bills than give money to you, don't take it personally...young man...and get off my lawn. I shall continue to like and comment, but not subscribe. Thank you fellow nerd.

how so? there's plenty of beginners that feed in code from robust configs like lazyvim or lunarvim, asking questions to understand how it's used.

@@jays It was more of a humorous comment, you see, I do understand that is important that AI know Neovim, since AI knows a bunch of things. I was talking more bout Neovim & Vim being hard for new users
