Andreas Grois<p>There was an article in the weekend issue of <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/derStandard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>derStandard</span></a> that enraged me a bit:</p><p>Supposedly approximately every tenth coder is a <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/GhostEngineer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GhostEngineer</span></a>, who does not contribute significant value to codebases.</p><p>However, their source seems to be sketchy.<br>First of all, the quoted source was a Twitter post that was just clickbait for the poster's website. Which too, is sketchy. The linked "research paper" has not been peer reviewed, and the abstract reads like an <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/Advertisement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Advertisement</span></a> for the author's AI app.</p>
Greg Wilson<p>Yegor Denisov-Blanch has posted a defense of his group's "ghost engineer" research at <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7269546281742520320/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:l</span><span class="invisible">i:activity:7269546281742520320/</span></a> As far as I can tell, the paper itself has still not been published and neither the model nor training data are available for inspection. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ghostengineer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ghostengineer</span></a></p>
mxk<p>I am a <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/ghostEngineer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ghostEngineer</span></a><br>Most days I don't write any code, since consulting people within the company, solving big picture issues, helping structure problems, analyzing issues, building software that never gets submitted, just as a single purpose instrumentation, turns out to already be a full-time job.<br>If you look at code written and bugs fixed, I am probably at the bottom 10% of my company for the last year. I rarely fix issues, the tickets I analyze are whole system issues, rarely my own code.</p>
