I have a feeling this one’s mostly operator error.
Once we found the issues, it was actually quite easy to tell the AI to fix them. But at this point you’re debugging generated code to imrpove your input for the code generator … and it just was faster to write the code by hand.
And yes, there was a vast overestimation of what it can do, especially by some managers that used to be coders and thought this would compensate for their lack of recent practical expirence. It didn’t … I had to fix it.

My point is that it’s not just for coding, if you think that’s the only use case then sure I get why you’d think it was shitty.
I’ve used it a bit for general knowledge things and fun facts, and on more than a couple of occasions it just made shit up.
I’m sure it has some uses, I see a lot of AI generated porn in my “all” feed … just haven’t found one for myself or my work.
