  • Dunno. I’d expect to have to make several attempts to coax a working snippet from the ai, then spending the rest of the time trying to figure out what it’s done and debugging the result. Faster to do it myself.

    E.g. I once coded Tetris on a whim (45 min) and thought it’d be a good test for ui/ game developer, given the multi disciplinary nature of the game (user interaction, real time engine, data structures, etc) Asked copilot to give it a shot and while the basic framework was there, the code simply didn’t work as intended. I figured if we went into each of the elements separately, it would have taken me longer than if i’d done it from scratch anyway.
