    The only way it helps me is when I basically use it as a search engine, and it generates some wonky code that I have to fix. For example, instead of checking how you override the mouse in c# in a godot node, it gives me a basic blueprint of that (usually with unnecessary stuff added), that I then change and use.

    Or recursively scan a folder in python.

    It never gives you exactly what you want, but it often has the underlying structure. It’s like going to stack overflow but a bit faster.

      I do agree it’s pretty helpful for remembering things I don’t use often or finding APIs for things I haven’t done before. Also not a bad rubber duck. Not worth burning the planet for, but smaller local models that can handle this job I’d be happy to have in my workflow
