My job is basically forcing everyone to use it because we’re trying to be a part of the bubble. So, I’ve had some recent experience with the most up-to-date models and things.
For stupidly simple operations in coding it works fairly well, and then just as you’re referring to here, for anything slightly complicated you still have to do it yourself because otherwise it will just lie to you and say it did a thing when the code doesn’t work at all.
I am being tracked for my usage of AI, so I fiddle with it. My conclusion: worst intern ever.
It sometimes gets things right, just like you said - but I’ve reviewed what a coding assistant claimed it did, been reasonable impressed, then glanced at the code and discovered it hadn’t even done what it claimed. It wasn’t just buggy - it lied about itself.
My previous worst intern just didn’t do the work. This nonsense wastes my time.

I’m so happy that all our ai usage is completely optional and not even encouraged.
I would have thought in order to be part of the AI bubble you need to create and sell something that has to do with AI. Not just be a user.
Where is the money in that? Being able to fire half your workforce?
Have I mentioned how happy I am that I’m not forced to use AI?!
