    I’m mildly surprised at all the bad experiences.

    I’ve been using chatgpt for a while now. Tbf, of all the ai code assistant I tried, the only one that isn’t garbage is chatgpt. Annoying part is to provide code snippet and context.

    But once you do, it becomes a god

    Entire mechanics, algo, template, helper functions, done within a minute.

    I legit can save multiple hours of work everyday with it. Obviously, I use this extra bit of time for myself ! Lmao
