A new Coddy Developer Survey found that four in five developers, 80%, say their use of AI has felt more like a dependence than an advantage.

A pretty good one. I mean we’re running out of them, google isn’t very helpful anymore, and DDG is just a frontend…
Eh, I’ve had VERY mixed results. I’ve had it tell me information that I absolutely knew was wrong, and it did so with great confidence, until I copy and pasted the excerpt from the website and the URL back to it. It then goes, “Oh you’re right!” Ughhhh…
Yeah. Mixed results. Just like an ordinary search. And please note- you knew it was wrong. It is much easier using a tool when you know when it’s misbehaving. Sure the level of utility varies from person to person and situation to situation, but there are things I am truly grateful that AI helped me understand, learn, or just spit back at me. It is a very useful tool.
