    If you have to write the code and tests yourself… That’s just normal coding then

      You don’t, you get it to write both the code and the tests. And you read both of them yourself. And you run them in a debugger to verify they do what you expect.

      Yeah, that’s half the work of “normal coding” but it’s also half the work. Which is a pretty awesome boost to productivity.

      But where it really boosts your productivity is with APIs that you aren’t very familiar with. ChatGPT is a hell of a lot better than Google for simple “what API can I use for X” questions.

        You might have to rewrite all of it. The code and the tests.

        Hell even the structure/outline it took might not be correct.

      Yeah but I don’t. That’s the whole damn point.

        I really suggest you guys try it.

        It’s really really bad very often.

          Do you not understand the context of this conversation?

          I literally use it all day everyday. I’m 4x as productive as I was. I’ve been using it since the early early early beta.
