I’ve found that AI has done literally nothing to improve my life in any way and has really just caused endless frustrations. From the enshitification of journalism to ruining pretty much all tech support and customer service, what is the point of this shit?
I work on the Salesforce platform and now I have their dumbass account managers harassing my team to buy into their stupid AI customer service agents. Really, the only AI highlight that I have seen is the guy that made the tool to spam job applications to combat worthless AI job recruiters and HR tools.
I used it the other day to spit out a ~150 line python script. It worked flawlessly on the first try.
I don’t know python.
It might not work so flawlessly on the 2nd, 3rd, or 100th time though. I use ChatGPT semi-frequently for coding, while it generally does a surprisingly good job, I often find things it overlooks, and need to keep prompting it for further refinements, or just fix it myself.
Yeah I’ve had to go back and fix (re prompt) some things like this in the past.
The headline is that it helps me code things far faster than if I was doing it myself. And sometimes saves me 100% of the work.
