On using AI for this blog
In this age of AI, opinions are divided on how to use it. Here are my thoughts for this blog:
- I think AI can be used as a force of good.
- AI produces code good enough for non developers. There is a different bar for developers. In addition to creating new things, good code should also remove unnecessary things (and prevent creating of those unnecessary things in the first place).
- Sometimes you have to do what the business needs. Other times you have to be a craftsman. This blog tries to document my craftmanship.
- Humans and deterministic tools are the trust layer. AI should not be the trust layer. Vet AI results. Don't give other humans AI slop.
- I will use AI to learn & verify. But all the text and code is handwritten. No AI generated text. Blog for humans by a human.
- I hope to get better over time. Please be kind to me if I make mistakes.
- Have fun. I did, for every post here. I hope you find it fun as well.
