    I’m sure I’ll catch hell for this, but I use AI to learn how too do something kinda new for me, and it makes the process much easier than butlarian purists would like.

    Example: I know how to program/script in a few languages, and I used AI to help me with a new one. I’m currently doing this with JS so I can automate some VTT actions.

    Sure I could have spent hours researching and figuring out the annoyances of the language. Or I can have a bot give me the first few macros, read them, run them a few times, and use that as the skeleton of the next macros.

    It’s completely possible to use what the AI gives you as a springboard for your own learning if you choose to better yourself along the way instead of just letting it do all the work for you. I mainly use AI as a rubber duck/reviewer to help fix mistakes or learn new concepts. But the bot never has control of anything that executes or access to my full codebase (or even full files).
