Call me old fashioned but I take pride in things I work hard to achieve. I think it's embarrassing to be proud of AI output of any kind, be it software or art or writing.

But you're acting like everything that you use AI to build is easy to achieve, and that doesn't seem to be true.

Hope all your programs are written in machine code. Wouldn’t want to be proud of compiler output.

I mean yeah? Wouldn't you be more proud of your ability to write a program in machine code than you would in assembly? Or more proud of assembly than of C? Or more proud of C than of Python?

Each stage takes greater effort, effort which creates skill. Those hard-earned skills are accomplishments to be proud of.

When LLMs are remotely comparable to compilers, your analogy might hold water. But in the world of today, it holds none.

And I’m sure ctoth’s non-coder friends will be just devastated to hear that some random online account is embarrassed because they’re proud of a little app they created for fun.

Sure, you can feel proud of whatever you wish.

But don't share that shit with others and expect them to feel similarly proud of what you did.

lol, you’re literally talking about non-coders that GGGP said they know. No one is sharing their AI stuff here asking you to be impressed.

> No one is sharing their AI stuff here asking you to be impressed.

That actually happens all the time on Show HN these days.
