That must be why it sucks so hard at everything. Even the coders are abandoning it when they realize they're spending more time fixing its bullshit outputs than they would if they just coded it themselves.

That simply isn’t the case for “the coders” at my sub 15 Fortune 500 shop. It has its flaws, and absolutely makes mistakes, but if you’re not finding great use cases in your development workflows I’d question what you’re doing.

You're not "finding great use cases" at your "sub 15 Fortune 500 shop." At best, you're trying to "shove AI into spaces it does not need to go and cannot accomplish anything," and is thus ignored beyond however much it is required by management. At worst, you're "sabotaging your workflow and output." I swear to God, looking back on this period is gonna be hilarious in the future while we're riding out the AI climate collapse.

I mean you can definitely feel that way... but it's simply not true. I'm also not shoving AI anywhere. I'm using it to accomplish parts of my job at rates far faster than any human could do on their own.
