Software Book Club : I Used AI. It Worked. I Hated It.
Details
In this episode of Software Book Club, we will discuss an opinionated blog article about using AI for software development. The author really hated the experience. Does it match your experience too? Or do you disagree? Give it a read and bring your own opinions!

This event is for curious builders from all backgrounds to discuss software engineering practices. We value socratic inquiry, healthy debate, bike-shedding, war stories, and most of all, learning and craft!
Participation is purely interest-based. No one’s taking attendance, nor expected to join every session.
There is no goal but to exchange perspectives and opinions on best practices, interpret ideas and whether they’ve stood the test of time, give examples to things we don't understand 🕊️
Schedule
Intros - 10-15 min
Discussion: Rest of the session.
Do you have suggestions on what to read/discuss next? Let us know. We're open to different approaches and formats.

Ground rules
- Read the text beforehand. Come with questions and interpretations.
- We want everyone to get a chance to speak or raise questions. So while we welcome speaking up, we encourage being mindful of other participants.
- It's ok to spectate if you're shy or tired, but since this is an activity grounded in discussion, we'd also appreciate that you introduce yourself or interact with the subject on chat.
In keeping with the contributor convenant, we don't tolerate harassment, abuse, elitism or unwelcoming behaviour.
