Full title: Microsoft's distinguished engineer says "typing code is absolutely over," and Windows 11 is already being built that way. Nadella previously said 20-30% code at MSFT is AI-coded, and Windows security updates now include AI-assisted fixes to fight AI-enabled threats.

No, absolutely not. Windows still has major bugs like launching desktop apps from a shortcut drops environment variables when the environment path exceeds 2048 bytes. If AI was as good as they claim, it would have found these bugs already.

    It doesn't matter if AI is as good as they claim. Right now, and every new moment, is the worst AI will ever be. Don't be shortsighted and assume since it can't currently do X it will never do X. 2GB of RAM was once a lot of RAM. At the time, we would have said what on earth would anyone ever need 32GB of RAM for.

    Not to mention who knows how many bugs AI has already found and fixed in Microslops code. It's already in the thousands, that's for sure.

    And before someone starts throwing insults for me "defending" AI, I am strictly talking about AI as a technology. I am not talking about what the mega corps are doing to create said AI. The legislature needs to be quick to stop these companies from destroying the planet trying to innovate AI the fastest. Despite that, I can still recognize AI as the innovation that it is. There are a lot of things AI does not belong in, but unfortunately writing code is one of the perfect use cases for AI.
