I had an intern who didn’t shower. We had to have discussions about body odor in an office. AI/LLM’s are an improvement in that regard. They also do better work than that kid did. At least he had rich parents.

I had a coworker who only showered once every few days after exercise, and never used soap or shampoo. He had no body odor, which could not be said about all employees, including management.

It’s that John Dewey quote from a parent post all over again.

Was he Asian? Seems like somehow asians win the genetic lottery in the stink generation department.

Wait, you had Asmongold work for you? Tell us more! xD

I have always been told expect an intern to be a net loss in productivity to you and anything else is a bonus since the point is to help them learn.

What about a coach's ability for improving instruction?

The point of coaching a Junior is so they improve their skills for next time

What would be the point of coaching an LLM? You will just have to coach it again and again

coaching a junior doesn’t just improve the junior. It also tends to improve the senior.

Coaching an LLM seems unlikely to improve you meaningfully
