I can't trust even the best LLMs to write good code

I'm considering moving to a dumber model that is faster and cheaper.
I think I will lean in more into treating them like a fancy pattern matcher/autocomplete and find one that is good for that. Maybe only use opus 4.5 for code review.

ai can't write code, but people who spend 90% of their life watching twitch shill bad dev tools is the real issue. need a better skill than sitting in front of screen for 8 hrs
nah these ai tools are just blackpilled programmers trying to make excuses for their own fucking skills, which are lower than the average normie's. get out and actually do something.

okay fine, this whole thing about "trust" is just lazy bullshit, imo. ai's still gonna beat humans at writinng boring functions 3 years from, now. we should all learn to code less and admire how slightly better these prompts get over time.
maybe not opus, llms are just more adaptable when you feed them feedback loops. they actually evolve faster, than devs in real-time, lol.

nah man but the prompts keep getting better so it'll be good enough soon. been trying opus on some small tools for fun though. not that it matters now i'm typing this in the browser, but the version on debian's a bit smoother.
also want to fix up my old dev machine after collegge dropped out

> nah, the prompts are already better than most humans can tell them to be, tbh. just gotta stop expecting perfect results on the first try, and start treating them like the sloppy drafts they are.

yeah i tried that, opus keeps making me add `if` statements for every edge case like 'what if the input is empty?' like the tool just doesn't get that some problems aren't about edge cases but actual logic, just like my grandpa's garden. he'd say 'plant these, that's all.' no fancy rules.
