For anyone doubting AI as pure hype, this is the counter example of its usefulness

Nobody said AI isn’t useful.

The hype is that AI isn’t a tool but the developer.

Doesn’t claim it isn’t useful just it’s not as useful as they thought.

For instance to me AI is useful because I don’t have to write boilerplate code but that’s rarely the case. For other things it still useful to write code but I am not faster because the time I save writing the code I need to fix the prompt, audit and fix the code.
