Yeah, whenever I think of an AGI as a coding assistant I wonder “will it just have days where it’s not in the mood to code just like I do?”.

That's the feeling I get when I try to use LLMs for coding today. Every once in a blue moon it will shock me at how great the result is, I get the "whoa! it is finally here" sensation, but then the next day it is back to square one and I may as well hire a toddler to do the job instead.

I often wonder if it is on purpose; like a slot machine — the thrill of the occasional win keeps you coming back to try again.

If it's truly an AGI it would just ask to talk to your boss as the whole project is a drain on humanity and your own soul.
