I'm a DevOps engineer. I'm training someone new to the field.

Often I'll ask the AI to do something and it goes sideways. Sometimes it really saves me time, but many times not. I'll break down and actually type out commands or even Google what to do instead of using the AI because it's still faster.

It's true that my trainee uses the AI more because there's fewer commands in his muscle memory. But, it's still not great yet.

Further, the AI must have each one of its actions approved. I've tried fully automatic mode. It's bad.

AI is more like a lawn mower. It's self-propelling, but you still have to hold on to it, sometimes you got to turn it off and just pull the stuff out of its way or it gets stuck.

Are you talking about CLI commands? I’ve been at programming for over a decade and don’t have the type of memory that allows me to remember all the obscure non-intuitive commands - AI has been a lifesaver, I could care a-less about nerd points.

Devops is much more terminal heavy. I live in the terminal. It's not nerd points at that point it's just life.

No one does! That’s why everyone uses man and write scripts. And also bookmark the wiki pages.

warp is especially helpful with this

Or turn it over and fix a broken belt.

Or scrape out all the dead grass that has piled up inside.

That goddamn flap on the back that gets stuck folded under the thing every time you back up.
