#2It will allow programmers to make errors much faster :D.
Programmer: why is my program not working?
AI: Strange, it's working for me.Re: AI learns to write its own code by stealing from other programs

The approach taken seems to be quite unique. Especially when compared to GPs and GA evolved custom assemblies. Those approaches work too, but mostly fail (or take too long) at solving slightly complex problems.

#6Hm, I wonder if the past ACM problems or TopCoder problems and solutions could be fed to a deep learning network...

People pay me... to use StackOverflow haha
On a serious note this could potentially suck for developers. Just like the labor jobs and automation. You have a skill set? Well this computer can do your job. I guess be the guy building the code writing the code.
I do wonder what will we do when computers do everything for us. I have this motor that moves my neck to a look at a girl who also has a motor that moved her neck to look at me haha.

Sorry but as another Google-coder I just had to say that from another perspective people pay you to do a job, to perform a task. You perform that task. How is up to you. ;)

Yeah, this is a pretty existential question that has been posed a lot around here. What do you do if you do not have to do anything? It is like vacation, forever. You are free to be lazy, or creative, or adventurous, or somewhere in between, but will you be happier? I have been between significant work for a few months and I am itching to do something consequential but I also really enjoy the space to do anything, not that I take full advantage more often than when I was working full time.
The ongoing basic universal income study at YC, blog.ycombinator.com/hiring-for-basic-income/ I hope produces some more clarification.
