AI coding dismissed as 'clicking' by novices, experts say

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Some individuals dismiss AI-assisted coding as mere "AI clicking," implying a lack of genuine skill. However, this perspective overlooks the foundational coding and technical knowledge required to effectively leverage AI tools. While experienced programmers might use AI for efficiency, a novice given the same tools would struggle to produce high-quality applications, likely resulting in poorly structured and designed software. The author argues that AI-assisted development, while sometimes self-deprecatingly called "clicking" by programmers, is far from a simple process for those unfamiliar with the underlying principles.

    요즘 앱 만들다보면 전혀 지식이 없는 부류들이 "AI딸깍 이면서 뭐..." 라며 폄훼or폄하하는 태도들이 간혹 보이는데, 이것도 어느정도 코딩이나 테크 지식이 기반되니까 손코딩에 비해 많이 편해지고 딸깍처럼 보이는거지, 암것도 모르는 사람한테 갖다주고 AI로 바이브 코딩을 하든 뭐하든 어디 해봐 하면 절대 기존 프로그래머들이 만드는 수준의 고퀄리티의 앱이 나오지도 않을 뿐더러 어설픈 파이썬으로 코딩한 단일 파일 구조로 된 UI도 이상한 앱만 만들어질 뿐임. 물론 프로그래머들끼리는 자학처럼 딸깍이다…
