It is with great pride that I can say that a GCP-HPC pure-bash application I've been working is completely AI free.
For the interested, it's something I was working on while bored at work has been blessed as good use of time for the benefit of our dry lab. I'm hoping to be allowed to open source it. It's basically a git-like interface between GCP head nodes and GCP buckets
I've been working on a fully open source Obsidian Notes clone for over a year, and now that the decompilation AI tool just dropped I'm not sure people will believe me when I say I didn't use AI
Congrats, we all had AI free apps 2 years ago, and for the 50 years before that... Keep calm and carry on, what worked then, still works now.
Or, freak out - you just might consider having an agent like Opus 5.5 review your code and write you a report of its findings... if you don't, others will - that's the new landscape. If you do get "findings" in the report, I'd be curious to hear if any of them were both valid and concerning. I'm sure you won't care about a lot of what it finds, but you might just be surprised by some things it does find.
I'll pass on the AI review. I'll QA my work myself, thanks.
Honestly, passing on any code review is a pretty thick headed thing to do.
I only want the code reviewed by people. That's not the same thing as passing on a review.
That's fine. It is probably worth noting human written code that has been reviewed by 1000s of humans are having valid critical bugs found in them by AI. No one is forcing you to use it but humans aren't magically perfect just because you don't like AI.
Any critical security vulnerabilities will be the fault of Google. This app is a glorified filepusher manipulating bash strings into standard path structures for google buckets.
Edit: to describe more precisely, it's a bunch of bash functions that manipulate a bash string for the commands
gcloud storage lsandgcloud storage cp. It has some useful functionality beyond that, such as tracking projects and project versions for collaborative purposes, but this is a mask on top of existing commands.Opus reviewing an entire codebase is pretty impressive. I use it a lot for some hobbyist stuff and its great at finding bugs, security issues, and just basic stuff like spelling/grammer mistakes.
But of course, on Lemmy you'll get downvoted because "ai bad"
There was a time that was 100% true, I'm seeing a bit more from different points of view lately.
24 months ago I wasn't saying "ai bad" I was saying "ai nearly useless."
or let a person sold you for your shit code
