Human coders are still better than AI, says this expert developer
Your team members may be tempted to rely on AI to help them write code for your company, either for cost or speed rationales or because they lack particular expertise. But you should be wary. — Pixabay In the complex 'will AI steal my job?' debate, software developers are among the workers most immediately at risk from powerful AI tools. It's certainly looking like the tech sector wants to reduce the number of humans working those jobs. Bold statements from the likes of Meta's Mark Zuckerberg and Anthropic's Dario Amodei support this since both of them say AI is already able to take over some code-writing roles. But a new blog post from a prominent coding expert strongly disputes their arguments, and supports some AI critics' position that AI really can't code. Salvatore Sanfilippo, an Italian developer who created Redis (an online database which calls itself the 'world's fastest data platform' and is beloved by coders building real-time apps), published a blog post this week, provocatively titled 'Human coders are still better than LLMs.' His title refers to large language model systems that power AI chatbots like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Anthropic's Claude. Sanfilippo said he's 'not anti-AI' and actually does 'use LLMs routinely,' and explained some specific interactions he'd had with Google's Gemini AI about writing code. These left him convinced that AIs are 'incredibly behind human intelligence,' so he wanted to make a point about it. The billions invested in the technology and the potential upending of the workforce mean it's 'impossible to have balanced conversations' on the matter, he wrote. Sanfilippo blogged that he was trying to 'fix a complicated bug' in Redis's systems. He made an attempt himself, and then asked Gemini, 'hey, what we can do here? Is there a super fast way' to implement his fix? Then, using detailed examples of the kind of software he was working with and the problem he was trying to fix, he blogged about the back-and-forth dialogue he had with Gemini as he tried to coax it toward an acceptable answer. After numerous interactions where the AI couldn't improve on his idea or really help much, he said he 'asked Gemini to do an analysis of (his last idea, and it was finally happy.' We can ignore the detailed code itself and just concentrate on Sanfilippo's final paragraph. 'All this to say: I just finished the analysis and stopped to write this blog post, I'm not sure if I'm going to use this system (but likely yes), but, the creativity of humans still have an edge, we are capable of really thinking out of the box, envisioning strange and imprecise solutions that can work better than others,' he wrote. 'This is something that is extremely hard for LLMs.' Gemini was useful, he admitted, to simply 'verify' his bug-fix ideas, but it couldn't outperform him and actually solve the problem itself. This stance from an expert coder goes up against some other pro-AI statements. Zuckerberg has said he plans to fire mid-level coders from Meta to save money, employing AI instead. In March, Amodei hit the headlines when he boldly predicted that all code would be written by AIs inside a year. Meanwhile, on the flip side, a February report from Microsoft warned that young coders coming out of college were already so reliant on AI to help them that they failed to understand the hard computer science behind the systems they were working on –something that may trip them up if they encountered a complex issue like Sanfilippo's bug. Commenters on a piece talking about Sanfilippo's blog post on coding news site Hacker News broadly agreed with his argument. One commenter likened the issue to a popular meme about social media: 'You know that saying that the best way to get an answer online is to post a wrong answer? That's what LLMs do for me.' Another writer noted that AIs were useful because even though they give pretty terrible coding advice, 'It still saves me time, because even 50 percent accuracy is still half that I don't have to write myself.' Lastly, another coder pointed out a very human benefit from using AI: 'I have ADHD and starting is the hardest part for me. With an LLM it gets me from 0 to 20% (or more) and I can nail it for the rest. It's way less stressful for me to start now.' Why should you care about this? At first glance, it looks like a very inside-baseball discussion about specific coding issues. You should care because your team members may be tempted to rely on AI to help them write code for your company, either for cost or speed rationales or because they lack particular expertise. But you should be wary. AIs are known to be unreliable, and Sanfilippo's argument, supported by other coders' comments, point out that AI really isn't capable of certain key coding tasks. For now, at least, coders' jobs may be safe… and if your team does use AI to code, they should double and triple check the AI's advice before implementing it in your IT system. – Inc./Tribune News Service

Calling for ethical and responsible use of AI
LETTERS: In an era where artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly shaping every facet of human life, it is critical that we ensure this powerful technology is developed and deployed with a human-centric approach. AI holds the potential to solve some of humanity's most pressing challenges, from healthcare innovations to environmental sustainability, but it must always serve the greater good. To humanise AI is to embed ethical considerations, transparency, and empathy into the heart of its design. AI is not just a tool; it reflects the values of those who create it. Therefore, AI development should prioritise fairness, accountability, and inclusivity. This means avoiding bias in decision-making systems, ensuring that AI enhances human potential rather than replacing it, and making its' benefits accessible to all, not just a select few. Governments, industries, and communities must work together to create a governance framework that fosters innovation while protecting privacy and rights. We must also emphasise the importance of educating our workforce and future generations to work alongside AI, harnessing its capabilities while maintaining our uniquely human traits of creativity, compassion, and critical thinking. As AI continues to transform the way we live, work, and interact, it is becoming increasingly urgent to ensure that its development and use are grounded in responsibility, accountability, and integrity. The Alliance for a Safe Community calls for clear, forward-looking regulations and a comprehensive ethical framework to govern AI usage to safeguard the public interest. AI technologies are rapidly being adopted across sectors — from healthcare and education to finance, law enforcement, and public services. While these advancements offer significant benefits, they also pose risks, including: • Invasion of privacy and misuse of personal data; • Algorithmic bias leading to discrimination or injustice; • Job displacement and economic inequality; • Deepfakes and misinformation Without proper regulation, AI could exacerbate existing societal challenges and even introduce new threats. There must be checks and balances to ensure that AI serves humanity and does not compromise safety, security, or fundamental rights. We propose the following elements as part of a robust regulatory framework: 1. AI Accountability Laws – Define legal responsibility for harm caused by AI systems, especially in high-risk applications. 2. Transparency and Explainability – Mandate that AI decisions affecting individuals (e.g., in hiring, credit scoring, or medical diagnoses) must be explainable and transparent. 3. Data Protection and Privacy Standards – Strengthen data governance frameworks to prevent unauthorised access, misuse, or exploitation of personal data by AI systems. 4. Risk Assessment and Certification – Require pre-deployment risk assessments and certification processes for high-impact AI tools. 5. Public Oversight Bodies – Establish independent agencies to oversee compliance, conduct audits, and respond to grievances involving AI. Technology alone cannot determine what is right or just. We must embed ethical principles into every stage of AI development and deployment. A Code of Ethics should include: • Human-Centric Design – AI must prioritise human dignity, autonomy, and well-being. • Non-Discrimination and Fairness – AI systems must not reinforce or amplify social, racial, gender, or economic bias. • Integrity and Honesty – Developers and users must avoid deceptive practices and be truthful about AI capabilities and limitations. • Environmental Responsibility – Developers should consider the energy and environmental impact of AI technologies. • Collaboration and Inclusivity – The development of AI standards must include voices from all segments of society, especially marginalised communities. AI is one of the most powerful tools of our time. Like any powerful tool, it must be handled with care, guided by laws, and shaped by ethical values. We urge policymakers, tech leaders, civil society, and global institutions to come together to build a framework that ensures AI is safe, inclusive, and used in the best interest of humanity. The future of AI should not be one where technology dictates the terms of our humanity. Instead, we must chart a course where AI amplifies our best qualities, helping us to live more fulfilling lives, build fairer societies, and safeguard the well-being of future generations. Only by humanising AI can we ensure that its promise is realised in a way that serves all of mankind.
