    I used AI at work the other day… I’d just pasted something into a browser and realised I need to do a load of text manipulation. Rather than copy it out to vim, process it there and then back in, I just told the AI to do it.

      Yeah I use it to bypass advertising when looking up obscure coding problems. But I think the point is I’d never pay a penny (see what I did there?) to use it. It’s nice and helps some places but I think monetizing the billions spent is the challenge / impossible. Plus people at my work have copilot fatigue. It’s been integrated in such a clumsy distracting way. Actually adding negative value now.
