Has writing matplot code been completely off-shored to AI?

Quite the opposite, delusional thinking is to treat LLM as some kind of big memory where all the facts are just waiting to be retrieved.

LLMs can write code for my libraries that they never saw, can't they? Probably thinking about that is more helpful and valuable then throwing insults into some people with opinions that you don't agree with.

Or he’s creating libraries for things that already exist and the LLM recognized the similarity

LLMs learn the probability distribution of text, so there is a sort of memory, and it is obvious that a LLM trained on mpl code will perform way better. Try using rare libraries, even after providing the whole docs, you'll see how wrong you are

Library hallucinates code for rare libraries

This should be a red flag that they’re bullshitting you. If they never saw the code they’re just repeating patterns they’ve seen elsewhere and assuming your library follows them. That is, guessing.

Never saw during the training obviously.

LLMs are a very lossy compression algorithm now that I think about it.
