minus-squareNotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·1 day agoAs an indie / solo dev it’s possible, but how sure are you? Did a Google AI answer at the top help you in any way during development? Are you sure your IDEs completion or code suggestions isn’t LLM based? If not LLM based, are you sure it’s not some sort of ML based suggestions? There’s probably more ways you could be using it without considering it. Now get into a studio of many devs, and try to guarantee 1 hasn’t.
