R2-3D. The Future Coder Will Be An LLM (and it's not as bad as you think)

Room 3DE

Description

LLMs currently write code. Some of that code is probably better than some humans code. In fact, LLM-generated code is useable, and as I'll demonstrate, rather scary good. But the code that LLMs write - is it good code? Is it safe, secure, well-commented, etc...? These are important questions, I'll grant you, but I think they are the wrong questions. I think the question should be: Where does the human fit into the LLMDLC (LLM Development Lifecycle)? (Cuze LLMDLC is coming, if not here already) Do we simply feed an LLM a set of requiremnts and turn coding over to it? Do we trust it to generate the right code, secure code, safe code, correct code? Is the human mearly become a code reviewer?

Learner Objectives

o) See just how scary good LLMs are at writing code o) See just how bad LLMs are at writing correct code o) Discuss where the human fits into the LLMDLC o) How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the LLM
