Not gonna lie, I used slop early on when it was available, as well as when I was starting to get my footing with PowerShell, working on the CopyCompare script.

I quit using it fairly early on after hearing more and more about how awful it is for the environment, and how companies would shoehorn it into everything unnecessarily just to make a quick buck off the boom. Not to mention my own experience having to troubleshoot and re-do bad code that it would spit out.

I haven't used it since, but I would be lying if I said I've never used it.

@maddy I have used my employer's Github Copilot subscription (we're allowed to use it with our personal Github accounts) and its autocomplete feature for #Kittyscript, my own work in progress programming language.

Pretty much only to save myself the mechanical effort of typing out the characters, which is appealing to me because I never fully learned touch typing because my hands are too big to fit in the base position. I still kept control over the implementation and only accepted suggestions that already were very close to what I had in mind - I did always have a detailed idea of the code I want to write, I was just too lazy to type it from my brain to the keyboard.

I've stopped using it for personal projects entirely now. At work I still use it, although pretty much only the autocompletions. AI use is encouraged by my employer and I don't feel responsible for it.

I don't ask Copilot any questions, I much prefer looking up the actual documentation because that feels (and is) much more reliable.

While currently I don't use LLM stuff for Kittyscript development at all anymore, I did for a while use my employer provided Github Copilot subscription (we're allowed to use that with our personal...
