Are you still using AI tools to help with development?
I trialed GitHub Copilot and used ChatGPT for a bit, but recently I found myself using them less and less.
I've found them valuable when doing something new(at least to me), but for most of my day-to-day it seems to have lost it's luster.
You're viewing a single thread.
I just came back to copilot after the preview ended.
Keeps being pretty good at writing boilerplate, and not that good at much else.
For example when I’m writing a struct like “User” it more or less fills the fields I’m going to need, guesses the types and tags.
In new projects is also pretty good at suggesting things I might want to do. Maybe it gets the implementation wrong, but many times affect what I start working on next.
For the legacy Java code bases I maintain at work is completely useless. Maybe Copilot X can do something to help with that, we’ll see.
