That's sort of my experience too. It's really good at some auto-complete (especially copying patterns already in your code). For example if you write some cross product function it will easily auto-complete the equations after seeing one. It's obviously not as good as intellisense where that works. And it's really good for basic stuff in things you don't want to have to look up. E.g. "write me JavaScript to delete all DOM nodes with class 'foo'". I reckon you're underestimating how much time that saves though. The auto-complete saves me a few seconds many times a day. Maybe 2-3 minutes a day. A whole day in one year. The "write me some shitty script" stuff saves much more time. Sometimes maybe an hour. That's rarer but even one a month that's still a whole day in a year. Maybe 2 days in a year doesn't seem significant but given the low cost of these AI tools I think any company is self-harming if they don't pay for them for everyone. (Also I think the hallucination isn't that bad once you get used to it.) |

Now let's count the hours of "useless meetings" and how much time could be saved there. And that would cost us nothing.
I'm not sure saving two days of work _a year_ is worth the hassle of talking to an LLM like it's a 5 year old - IMHO.
