"AI can make you a 10x coder, if you spend 10x time in preparation, wrangling, and error checking. You can deploy AI agents, as long as you deploy other AI agents to watch them."
"AI is exceptionally good at producing structured documents that look, and mostly are, as if generated by a human expert. AI also generates and incorporates hallucinatory facts that have the exact look and feel of reality apart from one small flaw: they're false."
"AI's utility is very much damaged by hallucinations, and thus its output needs extensive checking. But it looks so good, so convincing, that it is very human to accept the AI promise of vastly improved productivity and hope for the best."
AI technology is advancing quickly, but its benefits are often outweighed by drawbacks, especially in coding and legal contexts. While AI can enhance coding efficiency, it requires extensive preparation and oversight. In the legal field, AI generates structured documents that may appear credible but often contain false information. This leads to challenges in maintaining accuracy and reliability, resulting in fake cases and undermining the legal process. The promise of improved productivity is tempting, but the reality is fraught with risks that necessitate careful scrutiny.
