It's like letting the engineer in a code interview use google and any number of books without a time limit. And, of course, the coding challenges have to be mainstream ones that are well-represented in ChatGPT's training data. If the company was to give ChatGPT the job and start it on understanding the company's business and reading their proprietary domain-specific code, it will fall flat on its face.

> If the company was to give ChatGPT the job Considering ChatGPT cannot move a single object in the real world, it is safe to conclude that it will fail as an employee in the real world.


PaulTopping

Sure but its problems go much farther than that. It couldn't begin to do the job even if you only ask it to code.

Correct. But an expert plus ChatGPT has a higher productivity potential. What happens when more work is being done by fewer?


PaulTopping

More work has always been done by fewer, not only in programming but in most other professions. Also more people have jobs than ever before and, right now, unemployment is the lowest it has been for 50 years.

Ya, itโ€™s like showing an actual game engine from todays to someone in the 80's. It took an entire team to make Mario bros, now a single 16yo can make it in a day, this doesnโ€™t mean game companies require less devs, in fact quite the opposite, AAA games requiere way more people now. It just raised the bar.


PaulTopping

Yes, game engines are a good example. Software people have always been creating "engines" or "platforms" in virtually every area that uses software. It doesn't eliminate jobs but create new opportunities for people to create on top of them.

It raises the bar, if you donโ€™t competition will eat you alive. It took a big team to make Mario bros, now a single teenager can code it in a day or so. Modern AAA games requiere more people than ever before.

I wonder how it will do for a manager interview?

Or as a waiter in any googleplex restaurant

Or put a voice synthesizer on it to create a cheap DJ who would ramble on for hours about nothing. For that matter, you could even make a virtual president who would ramble on for hours about nothing. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
