At this point, my adoption of AI tools is motivated by fear of missing out or being left behind. I’m a self-taught programmer running my own SaaS. I have memory and training enabled. What I can objectively say about Atlas is that I’ve been

Yeah I guess so! Maybe a transition between 1 and 2 and I probably am counted as a B2B user by them so maybe it isn’t clear to me yet how shitty they are (becoming). They even have a different account tier for business users.
