I think there are a lot of risks with AI, but I'm not convinced that it's intrinsically bad for "our minds, creativity, or competence". In many ways it's let me be MORE creative in the ways I want to be, by helping me overcome obstacles that were always blockers in the past.

- theshrike79 2y ago"AI" automates the simple things with crazy efficiency. Like I did a bunch of RSS-feeds for sites that don't have them (or they're crap quality). I just gave Cursor (Claude 3.7 I think) the HTML page and told it to write a parser that generates an Atom feed with Go from the page. In most cases it was right on the first go, a few I had to adjust to make them look right in FreshRSS. It even automatically suggested caching entries in a sqlite db to reduce load on the original site. This was for feeds that only have a link with no content, the application opens the link, fetches the relevant content and adds it to the custom feed.
