I can definitely relate to your experience. Just last week, I leveraged AI tools to develop some data processing code. Estimating how long it would have taken me to write that code without these tools is a challenge because, to be honest, a year ago I wouldn't have even considered attempting such a project. It might have required a week or even two of my time, which I simply cannot spare for this kind of undertaking. In the absence of these powerful AI tools, I would have opted for a more manual approach, like analyzing the data using Excel. It's fascinating to witness the impact AI has on our productivity and the expansion of possibilities it brings.

Have had similar experiences. I found two HTTP servers running on my TV and I wanted to see what was going on in them. Dirbuster wasn't packaged for Debian (that I could find). I wasn't too keen on trying to build from source or anything like that. A few months ago that would have been that. But with GPT I just asked it to write a POSIX-compliant C port of dirbuster. Less than 10 minutes later I was scanning my TV for routes. https://sharegpt.com/c/stLFWA1 https://sharegpt.com/c/stLFWA1

  WTF! Just wait until we have AI searching for Zero-day and writing exploits code for them... Or AI-assisted-Pen-testing-as-a-service <-- HackOne or someone similar should be all over this... What is Palantir doing for GPT crawling of logs and writing filters/rules/queries... Or firehosing data through an AI Deep Packet Inpector etc... Security is going to be the most interesting space to pay attention to going forward...

I've noticed it as well. The most recent example I can think was with gitlab webhooks. I need to manage (create/delete/edit) a lot of web hooks across a lot of different projects. I normally would have probably just started doing it by hand in the web ui, but instead I had some python code from gpt to automate it in a few minutes.
