And the real maddening part is that search engines have been so enshitfied to make way for AI that’s wrong like 9/10, so you’re forced to rely on it for answers because if you try google, the snake wraps around and eats it’s own tail giving you an AI answer! 


I’ve used it to create some simple scripts to do some tedious shit that I didn’t feel like coding myself but nothing serious or professional. For example:
“Here is a big file that has a bunch of data in it but I only need points X,Y,Z, formatted in a JSON which I have provided an example of. Write me a simple python script to do that.”
Works okay for that stuff. Always desk check it with edge cases.
LLMs do really well on short bash scripts, but often presume a lot of things about your system that result in having to rewrite it anyway.
