I find them quite useful, in some circumstances. I once went from very little Haskell knowledge to knowing how to use cabal, talk to a database and build a REST API with the help of an AI (I’ve done analogous things in Java before, but never in Haskell). This is my favourite example and for this kind of introduction I think it’s very good. And maybe half of the time it’s at least able to poke me in the right direction for new problems.
Copilot-like AI which just produces auto-complete is very useful to me, often writing exactly what I want to do for some repetitive tasks. Testing in particular. Just take everything it outputs with great scepticism and it’s pretty useful.
