> for those of you using AI tools more than I am, how do LLMs handle things like API updates? From recent experience, 95% of changes are good and are done in 15 minutes. 5% of changes are made, but break things because the API might have documentation, but your code probably doesn't document "Why I use this here" and instead has "What I do here" in bits. In hindsight it was an overall positive experience, but if you'd asked me at the end of the first day, I'd have been very annoyed. I thought this would take me from Mon-Fri if I was asked to estimate, but it took me till Wed afternoon. But half a day in I thought I was 95% done, but then it took me 2+ more days to close that 5% of hidden issues. And that's because the test-suite was catching enough class of issues to go find them everywhere. |
