Library still exist and are still consulted.

Google still exist and still is an advertisement corporation first and foremost.

AI will also be misused, but it can also be a good tool. It’s just not as magical as people tend to think it is.

Huuuuuh

You fear a new tool, making you a ludite. That’s all!

I seem to have hit a nerve!

Take care!

Nope. It works very fine most of the time. You need to be clear what you ask for and not ask for too much at a time. You say : do a script that does a small part, test it then add a new part and so on.

I mostly do this while doing another task, using my free time during compile and server deploy time to advance on my next stuff.

You can’t just ask him to do full feature and hope it works properly, that’s a recipe for disaster.

You have to think like it like working with a junior dev.

It has some good suggestions at time also. Don’t just discount it “because”.

You need to use your critical thinking skill with this as much as everywhere else.

You can ask it to make a memory dump in text form also.

Chatgtp also has a memory feature… It only gets full easily!

I use it for a lot of stuff that is productive.

• prototype code
• write boiler plate code for me
• correct my abhorrent French to pass as barely human in my own society
• prototype things i want to be custom made by an artisan
• tune recipes and find variation for recipes I like but grew bored off
• find counter arguments to ideas I have to start an iteration loop.

The tool has a lot of real life, productive and helpful use case, you just need to learn how to use it properly for it to be useful, like any tool I guess.
