Literally what computer programmes are. A large part of development is making sure end users do things correctly.
It's a perfect task for AI. In fact most of it is achievable with standard coding.
These troglodytes probably couldn't even find their way around a terminal, don't worry about what they think can and cant be done with LLM's.
Not "knowing" doesn't have anything to do with AI performance. That's a very human centric view.
Like people are 100% right about everything they say.
I would go as far as to say a big chunk of what people believe is false. A lot of what we learned at school is wrong now.
My point is no human is right even close to 100% of the time. Yet that's the artificial target you've set for AIs.
It will still out perform an average human in a huge range of tasks.
I work in enterprise IT networking and systems and don't give a fuck about your shitty home server.
AI will do the bulk of the work, and humans will QA it. It's not that fucking hard to understand. No one here except you is focusing on the fact that it can't actually think for itself, no one ever said it was going to do its job without any kind of oversight.
Go back to being a hobbyist and let us professionals decide what can and can't be done.
I'll bet you're an MSP monkey or a DC tech
I'm actually the architect at a network operations center for a company that supports over 3000+ users across the entire US, but I can see that I hurt a bunch of self hosters feelings around here by claiming that AI will take over the majority of unskilled computer labor.
