As a software developer, AI has made me ten times more efficient. Before AI I used to produce 2-5 new bugs per day of work...

I suppose it could be useful if you have the sort of boss that thinks productivity is based on the number of lines of code you write.

I will never understand programmers claiming that AI makes them more efficient. As if Emmett and snippets hasn't already existed for a decade or so

It makes non-programmers more efficient. If you reach the limits of what text editors or Excel can do natively with REGEX and have to write scripts for data formatting, AI is a godsend. Takes 10 Minutes to generate a small script, glance over it to make sure it's ok, test it and start batch formating files rather than spend hours doing it by hand.

Because regular people are out there batch formatting files all day ..
