Ask HN:作为一名工程师,如何保持领先地位?

3 分•作者: spacebuffer•1 天前
你好,在过去的几个月里,我一直在深入思考我的软件工程师工作,以及在人工智能(LLMs)飞速发展的今天,我未来几年将如何为我工作的公司提供价值。 每次当我以为找到了能让我保持竞争力的优势时,人工智能似乎在几周/几个月内就能做得非常出色。我举几个例子: 当 GPT-4 非常流行时,我们看到了大量写得不好的、仅凭感觉编码的应用。我曾认为网络安全是一个很好的职业发展方向,因为总有一天需要有人来保护这些应用,以防它们被投入生产使用。但现在,我们看到新的模型正以惊人的速度发现安全漏洞。 最近,我不得不在工作中处理一些棘手的难题,需要交叉引用数据库和服务器中的不同日志,以便快速定位问题,最大限度地减少对生产环境的影响。我非常享受这个挑战,并认为这对我和我的雇主都很有价值。但最近我遇到一个人,他给了 Opus 只读权限访问他的 AWS 公司账户,结果 Opus 的诊断速度比他自己还要快(据他本人所说)。 当然,鉴于我的服务器托管在没有只读访问权限的平台上,我目前还不能让 AI 代理访问我的服务器。但我预见这种情况不会持续太久。 我想听听你对这种情况的看法。

Hi, for the past few months I&#x27;ve been thinking a lot about my work as a software engineer and how I&#x27;ll be able to provide benefits to companies I work for in the coming years, given the fast pace of progress of LLMs<p>Every time I think I found an edge that will help me stay I relevant, AIs seem to get really good at it in a few weeks&#x2F;months. I&#x27;ll give a few examples.<p>When gpt-4 was really popular we saw an increase of badly written vibe-coded apps, I thought cybersecurity was a good career path to persue since sometime will eventually need to secure these apps if they start being used in production. but now we&#x27;re seeing new models find security vulnerabilities at an insane rate.<p>More recently I had to deal with a few difficult problems at work where I had to cross-reference different logs in the DB and the server to pinpoint the issue quickly so production wouldn&#x27;t be impacted for very long. I really enjoyed that challenge and found it to be rewarding both for me and for my employer. but I recently came across someone who gave opus read only access to his AWS company and it diagnosed faster than he ever could have (according to the guy himself)<p>Sure I cannot give AI agents access to my server yet given that its hosted on platforms without a read-only access but I don&#x27;t foresee this lasting much longer.<p>I wanted to know what your thoughts are on this situation.
