@sergio_101@social.sixdegreesofohio.com yep that's pretty much how I use AI at work as well. We get GitHub Copilot with a set number of tokens. I use it for trivial but tedious stuff and coach it like I would a junior dev. I too have used it to create tools I always wanted but didn't find time to make. I still do a lot (most?) of my own programming, because a) it tends to go off on tangents and get lost, and b) I burn through tokens fast if I use it for everything.

@torek@snabelen.no I kind of want to use it to write software on #HaikuOS just so I can see what it looks like when an application is put together without having to pore over all of the SDK documentation

@torek@snabelen.no Yeah, the biggest problem I have found with coding using Claude code is that it will put together something that works. It's not tidy or clean or refactored or efficient. It just gets the job done, so I generally use it for toil and tedium. And then take the things that it built to avoid toil and tedium on my part and pipe them together efficiently
