As with all tech; it depends. It's another tool in my toolbox and a useful one at that. Will it replace me in my job? Not anytime soon. However, it will make me more proficient at my job and my 30+ years of experience will keep its bad ideas out of production. If my bosses decide tomorrow that I can be replaced with AI in the current state, they deserve what they have coming. That said, they are willing to pay for additional tooling provided me with multiple AI engines and I can't be more thrilled. I'd rather give AI a simple task to do the busy work than work with overseas developers that get it wrong time and time again and take a week to iterate while asking how for loops work in Python.

I’m definitely looking forward to adding this as a tool: I’m in DevOps so have to jump back and forth among many different programming languages. It should real help to switch context faster

… somehow I’m one of the “experts” using JavaScript despite never learning or using it. Hooray for my search engine skills I guess!
