If so, I’d like to know about that questions:

  • Do you use an code autocomplete AI or type in a chat?
  • Do you consider environment damage that use of AIs can cause?
  • What type of AI do you use?
  • Usually, what do you ask AIs to do?

    Sparingly. I use chatgpt to help with syntax and idioms when learning new languages. And sometimes I use it to help determine the best algorithm to use for a general problem. Other times I feed in working code and ask for improvements like a mini code review

    The only time I had it code something from scratch for me was when I wanted some Vimscript and I didn’t want to learn it. I tried the same thing with jq and it failed and I had to learn me some jq.

    I hate popups in editors in general (no intellisense for me), so I lothe AI trying to auto complete my code.
