AI Coding Assistant: My 'Oh Shit' Moment
2025-01-13
Over the Christmas break, the author experimented with an AI coding assistant to convert a Rust library to Haskell. The results were astonishing: the assistant not only completed the conversion but also generated a comprehensive test suite, C bindings, and CoreAudio interfacing. This wasn't simple knowledge regurgitation; it was the AI inventing something new. The author believes that future software engineers must embrace AI assistants to survive, and that a division currently exists within the industry regarding their adoption.
