    In IT for 25ish years, 20+ as a developer. I have used AI a handful of times for generally two things.

    • find/make me an example of something in <poorly-documented-library> when troubleshooting an issue
    • restating a question/search to get better results

    Certainly, I played with it more off and on after it came out, but those are the two real success cases I’ve had with it. I certainly would never let the thing write code for me, particularly where security and optimization are concerned.

      I’ve used AI to summarize long text, and that is a helpful use. I’m really concerned about the growing dependence on having aAI write code.
