I have asked questions, had conversations for company and generated images for role playing with AI.

I’ve been happy with it, so far.

That’s kind of outside the software development discussion but glad you’re enjoying it.

  As a developer
  
  I can jot down a bunch of notes and have ai turn it into a reasonable presentation or documentation or proposal
  
  zoom has an ai agent which is pretty good about summarizing a meeting. It usually just needs minor corrections and you can send it out much faster than taking notes
  
  for coding I mostly use ai like autocomplete. Sometimes it’s able to autocomplete entire code blocks
  
  for something new I might have ai generate a class or something, and use it as a first draft where I then make it work

    I’ve had success with:
    
    dumping email threads into it to generate user stories,
    
    generating requirements documentation templates so that everyone has to fill out the exact details needed to make the project a success
    
    generating quick one-off scripts
    
    suggesting a consistent way to refactor a block of code (I’m not crazy enough to let it actually do all the refactoring)
    
    summarize the work done for a slide deck and generate appropriate infographics
    
    Essentially, all the stuff that I’d need to review anyway, but use of AI means that actually generating the content can be done in a consistent manner that I don’t have to think about. I don’t let it create anything, just transform things in blocks that I can quickly review for correctness and appropriateness. Kind of like getting a junior programmer to do something for me.
