@mayintoronto I don't like it. I push back against using it when I can. I can't always since work is really keen on shoving it into every part of the company.

My team mates have few to no issues using it, and my manager likes to use it. Fortunately, my manager is pretty lenient on my non-use so long as I get work done.

For a project I'm working on, I have given in to his request that I use AI to convert our Chef recipes into Ansible playbooks. This is mainly due to having a hard deadline controlled by another team.

I'm manually reviewing every line it generates, which is standard practice in the company.

@bryanredeagle "Manually reviewing every line it generates" sound like a healthy practice, albeit a tad tedious.

How's your experience been so far?
Every time I do anything with these tools, I get lured in a little deeper. I'll never get a dev to build the lightweight internal tools I want to build. So yeah.

@mayintoronto @bryanredeagle As a dev, I also will never get a dev to write little internal tools I want. LLM's are really great for this use case.
