I think this correct it’s mediocre at a lot. It’s only 10x when you don’t know what you’re doing or doing something simple.

Nah, just at that something :-)

I cant even actually receive good essay from it and still writing each word myself.

LLMs are just replacing consultants as the #1 generator of sloppy code.

The majority of humans are average, as is the training set

Before I switched over the a career in tech, I made my living from music - playing live, session work, etc.

Honestly, I'm probably one of the biggest skeptics when it comes to GenAI - but at least for music, the recent models (as in the past year) do not suck. They are actually really, really good for what it is.

I have yet to hear anything truly original produced by those models. They seem to converge to the mean, and end up sounding very commercial, very average sounding - but in the sense of average "professional music". Suno can generate music which would have taken real people years to learn, thousands of dollars of equipment to make / produce, and pretty much ready for airplay - most listeners will not bat an eye.

Hell, these "AI artists" have been booked to festivals, since people can't hear the difference, and are enjoying the music.

I figure it will go the same way in other fields. The average consumer loses track of what's human made and what's AI made, and frankly won't care. The people "left behind" are the artists, craftspeople, etc. that are frustrated it came to this point.

No you don't understand, AI is VERY BAD at front-end and CSS to the point you cannot use anything.

It's not passable even slightly.

Everybody with experience knows that FE has always been "harder" than BE - but BE the stakes are higher since it's the business. FE is often "just UI" and despite that being very important too, you can throw it away and start over a lot easier with a UI than you can with a BE platform.

I digress, AI sucks fucking dick at UI.
