I just use chat gpt. I use it in all manners — questions about the business domain I am in, front end and backend coding questions, as well as istio configurations. I am well versed in all three areas, but obviously I can’t remember all the syntax, and don’t have time to trial and error the changes, and ai reduces that loop. I don’t use it to generate massive blocks of code, I use it mostly to demonstrate the principle of what I am trying to achieve. I have many specific examples of massive time save.

Gotcha. Thanks. Yes, that's about how I've used it. I found that it is good at snippets, mid-complexity queries, etc., but not so much full applications. Still, I keep hearing people claim that devs are getting ~60% productivity increases. And, I'm trying to figure out if this is supposedly through tools like Copilot. Also wondering whether AI has really had a significant impact on no code and low code tools. Just trying to see through the hype at what devs are really getting out of AI in its current state.
