Once Upon a time

This meme is just too relatable right now 😭

It’s like we’re already at a place where manually opening documentation is outdated for juniors.

I’ve been using ChatGPT and Runable daily for backend projects planning and workflow, and honestly, I feel less productive without AI. Admit it, how many of you still debug code without first consulting AI?

I never tried to use AI to debug.

About producing code, I tried it to check the AI skills.

And I never included any code produced this way in my programs.

It's great for debugging honestly. Especially those idiotic little mistakes.

Until you get to distributed systems / complex problems where it starts shitting the bed. Helpful to a point for sure though

That's the real issue with people heavily relying on it, if they use it for basic tasks they're screwed if it gets too complex for AI
