Campbell: ChatGPT's 'permaflow' eliminates human context-switching penalties
“Every time you go back to you know, chat.openai.com and go into this chat, It has a perfect state of where it was previously, right? So I said four or five hours of continuous work, but in reality, it was a bunch of 45 minute segments. And I didn't have to lik…”

Campbell: ChatGPT operates like a fast junior engineer needing domain guidance
“ChatGTP is not like a ten-year industry veteran with deep domain expertise, right? It's a decent sort of like Junior software engineer, and its benefit is that it's very fast, right? But you can't just sort of like let it take the reins and run with the proble…”

Madaeni: AI will shift software engineering toward prompting, code review, and QA
“At the end of the day, we're flying a plane that's, we're souping up the autopilot system, but I think we still need pilots. And, you know, a pilot with an autopilot system is a different kind of a pilot. So it's mostly about, I wouldn't say essay writing, but…”

Assertion Not checkable as stated
Campbell: Generating Plotly charts with ChatGPT took longer than the optimizer

Madaeni: AI battery dispatch code is ready for analysts, miles from production
“There's a lot to make a software code production great, and this is far from reality. So I would say, like, we are miles away from using this in production, but if you think about an analyst just trying to make You know, informative decisions as, you know, sou…”

Campbell: Blindly prompting LLMs to debug code leads to nonsensical rabbit holes
“In debugging, if you kind of just, like, keep prompting it, like, fix this, here's the error, like, here's the message I'm getting back in error, and you just kind of, like, assume it's gonna be smart. You can wind up in, like, rabbit holes that just don't mak…”
