    That drives me mad. “Oh, you don’t find AI that useful for developement? You should learn how to talk to it.”. Wasn’t that the point, that it would understand me?

      Meh, that was the sales pitch. But name one tool in development that actually does what the sales pitch claimed. Knowing how to get useful info out of AI does involve knowing how to talk to it. Just like getting the most out of gitlab means knowing how they intend for you to organize your jobs. So AI is just like every other tool, overhyped, underdelivering, and has “some” use.

        Git and even GitLab does its job quite well.

        IDEs do A LOT of heavy lifting for many devs.

        AI was supposed to boost productivity and eventually replace developers altogether.

        One of those things is not like the otters.
