Simon Willison:为编程写的讣告

My obituary for programming

AI 导读

Simon Willison 转引 Jeremy Scheff 的观点,称编程智能体夺走了职业程序员最享受的解谜乐趣——过去解决越棘手的逻辑难题报酬越高,且由程序员自己定策略、定时间线、定义可行性。对喜欢构建可用系统、不在意过程的程序员,LLM 是持续的好处;若解题乐趣是核心,损失则非常真实。

My obituary for programming (via) Jeremy Scheff poignantly captures the key loss caused by coding agents for career programmers who enjoyed the puzzle of developing code:

Programming turned into one of the greatest jobs you could imagine. You got paid to work on tricky little logic puzzles. The trickier the puzzle, the more you got paid. But even pretty simple puzzles were worth a lot of money because regular people just couldn't do it! No, they needed us. They would give us a problem and we would solve it the way we wanted. We set the strategy, we made the timeline, we defined what was and was not possible.

If you're a programmer who thrives on building working systems and doesn't care too deeply about the problems solved along the way, LLMs are the gift that keeps on giving.

If solving those many problems were a big part of your enjoyment, the loss is very real.
