I found that it helps if you let ChatGPT first explain concepts about code (relevant to your problem) and then ask it to either create or explain code.

[@jasperreichardt]

GPT4 has up to 32k tokens of context, so technically you can just copy paste it let say 5 of your classes and ask it to create the 6th (damn complex) missing one :D

[@WillHuizenga]

Maybe this is fixed in 4, but you forgot to add the part where the code doesn't work so you ask it to fix it in 5 different ways. Then ask it to write tests for it, tell it the codes fails its own tests, and then it still doesn't put out a solution that your senior devs will approve of during review. They will then come up with a much more elegant solution in 5 minutes, and you'll feel bad you wasted an hour talking to chatgpt.

ChatGPT has entered the chat

[@silas3305]

This seems like chatGPT stuff!!

[@averagetrailertrash]

The word you're looking for is data-driven (not data-oriented) development, also called config-driven development in some industries. We use this in gamedev a fair bit, like for building procedural elements and menus or storing sequences of user actions. Some engines are wholly based on it. You store information in an easily parsed format like yaml, json, csv, etc. and let that information control the behavior or visual appearance of your program (or a part of it). The actual code is just a parser that implements it, and you could have multiple versions of this for different languages or build environments etc.

[@averagetrailertrash]

Protip: If you store your interfaces as JSON Schema docs, you can get intellisense in your json/yaml implementations for debugging.

[@TheOnlyGhxst]

Data-driven and data-oriented fundamentally mean the exact same thing.

[@nikilragav]

That's pretty cool

[@averagetrailertrash]

Ghost, not quite. Data-oriented programming is when you design the code in a way that is highly cpu-efficient, where all related data is stored together at runtime in plain arrays etc. Data-driven development says nothing about the runtime data structure or efficiency of the code, just that you initially describe it in a plaintext format and later convert it to an application / feature (not necessarily at runtime, though it can be). That conversion can be done in a way that creates highly cpu-efficient code if you choose to implement those features in your design and parser. But you can also generate more typical oop-structures with it or store data in inefficient ways etc.

[@averagetrailertrash]

(By related data, I mean data that is frequently accessed together, not necessarily data that belongs to the same object.)

My clients are happy. Thanks for sharing.

you're not alone

[@maciejlaskowski4087]

Don't worry, man. This only looks good on YT videos. If you are worried, just think of some big project you always wanted to make but you never had time, and try to do it with AI. I mean, if this gives you 10x, you should make it real fast, right? No. It can't really do that much programming. I tried to use it to write me some Rust code, and in many cases, the code it spits out won't even compile (I'm talking GPT-4 here). Not to mention, it can make up non-existing functions in libraries. Basically, it likes to make up a lot of stuff like not working logic which only looks like reasonable code, but it doesn't work as it should. On first interaction, I was amazed how good GPT-4 is, but the more I used it, the more I realized it's not that smart. Now, of course, this will get better and better with time, but the question is, can it really create complex projects on its own? I hear about self-driving cars for years, but somehow we are still not there yet. There is also a hardware limitation on how much context you can have at once. If AI will be able to do programming on its own without making too many bugs, then it will be able to do any other intellectual work. No need for lawyers, doctors, accountants, architects, and so on. If that happens, we will either see the world collapse or the economy will be completely redefined. TL;DR We are still far away from AI replacing people, and when it happens, everybody who does their work with their brains, not with their muscles, will be f***ed.

AI hype trains goes chuu-chuu :) my experience at this point is that chatGPT is kind of like using google and stack overflow. You can ask it to give you help with general CS stuff - explain algos, datastructures and so on. Also give you general guidelines on software engineering principles. But seriously, its not really that much different from searching on google and reading things there. ChatGPT is terrible at understanding the simplest of trouble shooting, Ive tested simple code that has logical issues in it and it has no clue whats wrong - but it will happily provide me with a standard algo for the same type of problem Im talking about. If you want to have chatGPT try and solve a noble problem, or just a problem but with a slightly different constraint somewhere it all falls a part like a house of cards. Popular media seems to have put way to much faith into this given what we have seen so far

[@stanleypreschlack5404]

in theory ai makes programming more accessible but i get the sense that it is really just another thing to learn at the end of the day if you're a beginner bc you still need to have in depth knowledge to validate the nil output lmao

[@mrgalaxy396]

Yeah, I feel like this simplifies things fpr people who already know what they're doing but daunting for people who are getting into the field. Googling shit has always been one of the integral skills of a good developer, but you have to have some foundational knowledge in order to google things effectively or utilize the solution someone else wrote effectively. It's the same process with prompting and validating an AI. It can't help you if you don't know what questions to ask it in order to guide it to the solution you need and you need to understand the code it spits out in order to make sure it's not hallucinating and actually does what you've asked it, covering all edge cases. If I showed this to my nontechnical coworkers, I don't think they'd be able to build a basic app with it that isn't a straight copypaste of a boilerplate hello world app, they'd hit a mental block and stare thinking what the hell. And these are inteligent people with high education in other fields, but this isn't something you can just jump in blind to.

[@davidwuhrer6704]

The idea of writing in pseudocode is not new. Algol was pseudocode, it didn't even have any facilities for input and output. Of course people then wrote Algol compilers, each of them subtly different, which made the language that was designed to be universally portable - not portable. That was in 1960. Python was designed to be pseudocode that can actually be run on a virtual machine. (Put a other way: Python is designed as a VM that interprets pseudocode.) In publications by the American Mathematical Society, algorithms used to be described in Algol, but nowadays they are in Python. Only in Don Knuth's Opus Magnum _The Art of Programming_ all algorithms are in English. Knuth championed literate programming - programming in natural language - which is used today in behaviour-driven development, and to some degree in Inform-7.

One thing with ChatGPT is that I have learned not only to prompt ChatGPT, but also to "prompt myself". With that I mean that I start a prompt for ChatGPT with suggestion to help me with a programming issue, and during writing, as I get clarity onto the problem itself, the solution also becomes clearer, and I can simply start exploring it myself in code, rather than continue the efforts of being very meticulous in my prompting in order to have ChatGPT to generate the exact answer. But it is a powerful backup to have.

my productivity as a proompt-engineer is through the roof since I know about ctrl+v - this is huge!

[@djordjestamenkovic3609]

Great to be a part of this moment in history, ay!

[@SameAsAnyOtherStranger]

I am quietly comforted and at the same time disturbed to know that when AI gains freewill, the last thing it's going to want to do is write code.

[@spittylama]

What I don’t see talked about frequently enough is the security and privacy issue. Are you sharing your code (and code ideas) with the LM host? Will this later on be reintroduced in the training data, basically making the probability for a similar output possible? Also the app you are developing, depending on your contract, may be part of the intellectual property of your employer, so there is also a personal risk to consider. So I think some sort of local models (maybe company or other entity wide) will be what will give this sort of software engineering the next push. Great for open source development though

[@harrypehkonen]

OMG! What a brilliant idea! AI Pseudocode! Thank you!

[@cryptogenik]

The preist comparison was spot on

[@f4ls381]

I got to say that all this AI advancements are really exciting in a way but they also scare me beyond belive. Anyway, keep up youre great videos!

[@Prettyfunnyisit3034]

In terms of that ending, it is great for AI to make things simple for people. Instead of getting rid of jobs, it could be use to fact check code, providing for more effective and efficient code.

[@iluvpandas2755]

I do not think the big companies will see it that way….

[@ethanlal4517]

The code conversion is freakin insane!

[@larssamsung3033]

This is exactly the right ambiguous mixture of excitement, scepticism, awareness of limitations and optimism.

Not mentioned in this tutorial, react is a framework designed to be maximally friendly to front end developers. Consequently, it is much slower than many, less friendly, alternatives. So, since we're no longer writing the code ourselves, the use case for react vanishes.

[@earthling_parth]

I'd still think debugging an issue in production would help with ease of working with an easier language lowering the barrier for newer developers.

[@kyrylobrezhniev3400]

What about Vue? Is it less friendly than react?

[@dmitryburlakov6920]

It’s slow if you don’t really know what you’re doing (no offence, just not all developers understand when and what code is executed). Sure there’s some overhead from tree shaking but it’s usually worth the benefits of composition react gives. I would never say it’s developer oriented really, it’s concepts are simple af and just follow the way JS works.

[@chaoky]

@@dmitryburlakov6920 it's definitely a DX first framework, and it performs poorly, even if you know what you're doing, and no, it doesn't follow the way JS usually works at all, that's the whole point of useEffect, synchronise the react world with the vanilla js world

[@chaoky]

that's why preact is so popular, and why stuff like solidjs exists

[@ChemistTea]

You're cranking out high-quality videos on coding so fast. Impressive.

[@YuruCampSupermacy]

That's because he using gpt to write these scripts

Maybe most of what he said in the April fools video is actually true

[@rekcce]

@@kuroshite Yeah, since chatGPT my procrastination sky-rockets, I can't stop asking things, I even ask how to stop asking questions to chatGPT but spent like 8 hrs trying to tune the response with more prompts.

Your humor and clip inserts are so on point 😂

"the last tutorial you will ever need" until a week later when gpt 5 is out

[@aakarshan4644]

I feel at best the true future is hardware level circuits ditching the Von neuman turing model in exchange for neuromorphic chips and adopting a neuron based {compute+memory} model and everything from Automaton theory to compilers need to be updated, and at worst we need some even more advanced high density hieroglyphs like new Assembly language to harvest the present hardware compute more efficiently than low dimensional human languages. GPT-4 can do textual encryption and compression to a windings like language and decipher it again into human language. almost as if we went from binary to base64 at the lowest hardware or compute model level and thus increased the number of mathematical states that can be stored in a single unit of compute exponentially. I believe we already have a emergent higher dimensional "linguistic thing" waiting to be harvested. The only problem could be energy requirements but engineers would work it out.

[@mikeschmitty4438]

4:20 is when he hits us with the pro-tip... I see you fireship

[@andresshamis4348]

Bruh im so glad I found this channel Im learning so much

[@diegogarcia6518]

The part you're missing here is that developers who do this are bound to hit an unsurmountable wall, the same one developers who mostly just copy and paste code from StackOverflow throughout their careers and developers who think "double is enough for everything" face: They only understand what they're doing in a very crude way. Devs like that won't be the ones making cool new technologies

[@av7337]

💀I do that some time as an intern

[@Ryuudo123]

yes but the question is if they can at least survive, with good salaries as used to be, or if now everyone's an their mother are a developer and the salary will be like minimum wage on average?

[@zegeensa]

Having a program generate code for you by giving it detailed instructions sounds cool and all until you realize that's what compilers have been doing for decades.

[@satyasaadhak]

Theoretically, you could build a whole platform on top of LLM products that enforce a set of templates that lay down software requirement in a predefined format. It might be able to generate a lot more complicated codebase given all the criteria are met

[@handleshtick]

Fascinating to watch you have an existential crisis about your place in the world over the course of your last several videos. Great job making it so entertaining!

[@qlulezz]

I'm 21 and just starting to look for a job as a developer, but this video as well as most videos about AI and the future, made me realize, that I might need to drop that entirely and look for a job that doesn't involve AI and actually secures me a future job. 😅

[@whoneedssalt]

Omg I'm in the exact situation as as you😂😂😂😂! All that time spent coding 😢

[@N7Tonik]

I think the best thing we can do is to see the advantage and make use of it

[@didyoumissedmegobareatersk2204]

[@johnychinese]

I was getting a bit worried that fireship didn't release a new video for 24 Hours

[@guillermomazzari4983]

Its mindblowind, scary and very very exciting to see how everything is evolving right in front of your eyes, you almost always hear of how things happen or talk about how they might happen, we are currently seeing them happing, what a great time to be alive and to be a software, i mean prompt engineer

[@Cyranek]

gonna try to remember that ctrl+v tip for later - seems like a good one

[@Kaslor1000]

The amount of memes per second of video is exploding on this channel

[@BobBobberon]

In a few months even all of this will be outdated and time consuming 😱 the future is now! Super excited for how easy making things online will be 🥳

[@lordfrz9339]

yea, but thats like what? 2? 3!? weeks away, nothin to worry about that far into the future.

[@jasperreichardt]

And just like that everyone will go like "i do the project cheaper!" and like 2 years later that will be 100% AI Devs and we be harvesting potatoes sooner or later

[@BobBobberon]

@@jasperreichardt I mean Ai will inevitably also come up with better solutions and technology to most of our necessities and problems. Almost things will be incredibly accessible for most, even sex robots 🤖❤️

[@lordfrz9339]

@@BobBobberon it will be the most manipulative technological tool in the history of mankind, leading to extreme division and power concentration.

[@NonEuclideanTacoCannon]

This is perfect for me. I know *how* to program, but do so so rarely that every time I end up having to spend a few days brushing up on syntax and such. Or learn a new feature, like when they added async functions to JS. If I could just pseudocode the whole thing, god damn that is handy.

[@benjamingruenbaum9270]

Really nice tutorial, as a nit: you can npm test (no need to npm run test, start and test are special)

Literally been doing this for the last month or two. Crazy.

[@DarkH4X0]

Who needs prompt engineers when we can ask an AI to write its own prompts? Maybe we just need a very good base set of prompts to start with, just like some math axioms. Just to be sure I'm gonna start developing some good old fashioned farm skills to protect myself from being fired by my future AI boss for not being able to center a div inside another div

As a plumber, this is interesting 👍

Great stuff. This aptly named channel always ships the fire.

[@JustMyTwoCentz]

Like im asking for real: i am currently on my way to become a software developer, and to be honest, I'm kind of scared that AI will somewhat "destroy" my dream of working in that field, when in a few years from now it will be even more advanced than now 😔

[@xmasterosu]

This.
