Four months ago I asked if and how people used AI here in this community (https://lemmy.world/post/37760851).

Many people said that didn't use it, or used only for consulting a few times.

But in those 4 months AIs evolved a lot, so I wonder, is there people who still don't use AI daily for programming?

I use it at work because my colleagues only use it so it's the only way I can deal with the LLM slop without total killing myself. And it's horrendously bad still. I fucking hate it. Makes the worst fucking decisions.

I'm considering a career change honestly. I can't stand this shit anymore.

Opus 4.6 Gemini 3 pro

Name em Ive tried em. Its all so sub par for anything beyond a one off script.

People have the impression they should be outputting 10x with them so they abuse them into doing more "thinking" Then they should.

Edit: it's fucked the work culture more then it already was fucked when it comes to what defines software quality and expertise
