Depends what for, I find AI tools best for boilerplate or as a substitute for stackoverflow. For complex logic, even GPT-4 ends up sending me down the garden path more often than not.

I got Llama 3 8B down over the weekend and it's alright. Not plugged it in to VSCode yet, but I could see it (or code specific derivatives) handling those first two use cases fine. I'd say close enough to be useful.

Agreed. Can even get specialized LLMs like Deepsync Coder for better results
