For #AICoding criticism balance, a confession:
I just got completely stuck trying to do something (rather obscure) using the CodeMirror library and got pretty much stuck. Out of desperation I asked Perplexity and it gave me a directionally correct answer. Problem solved.
It's true, these are useful tools at times.

The results of an experiment I ran recently to test out a new approach to legacy system modernization. I'm really excited by the results, and more convinced than ever that this approach has tremendous potential for governments struggling with outdated systems.

Software innovation might be freezing in place—and AI could be to blame. Theo Browne points out that Copilot and ChatGPT often return React-style code even for Solid or Elixir projects. Why? Because they’ve seen React a million times more. Python 3 took a decade to overtake Python 2. If that transition had to happen today, would our dependence on AI suggestions keep us from making the jump?
