| schestowitz[TR3] | Such restructuring of the workforce is taking place when the company | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | is making large investments in generative AI, which can among other | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | things, generate computer source code. Naturally people assume that | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | Microsoft is assigning coding more and more to AI and fewer engineers | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | are needed. | Jul 10 02:15 |

| schestowitz[TR3] | Microsoft's CEO reveals that AI writes up to 30% of its code - some | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | projects may have all of its code written by AI | Jul 10 02:15 |

| schestowitz[TR3] | But I observe a major contradiction. If Microsoft's engineers find AI | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | code generation efficient and effective, so should those working on | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | free software projects. There should be submissions of AI-generated | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | code, discussions of the quality of such code, user reviews of various | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | AI-powered development tools and suggestions of how AI can enhance | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | traditional development tools, but I see none of it. I arrived to this | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | conclusion after a cursory check of some developers' lists in the | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | following archive: | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/ | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | Maybe I'm not looking hard enough. If anybody can point out to good | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | examples of AI usage in free software development, I'd like to know. | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | I believe that if AI is capable of code generation, it should be up | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | to other, related tasks. Code inspection is one of them. In many | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | regards inspecting existing code is easier than creating code from | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | scratch. It is strange that we hear a lot about AI code generation | Jul 10 02:15 |
| schestowitz[TR3] | and little about AI code inspection. | Jul 10 02:15 |
