Out of curiosity, which AI tools specifically do you use and do you pay for them?
Just whatever is free, so no, I don’t pay for them for two reasons:
my boss doesn’t allow AI to have access to our codebase
I honestly don’t find enough value to actually pay
So I’ll just find something with a free tier or trial and generate a little bit of code or something. Or I’ll use the AI feature in a search engine to help me get search terms for relevant documentation (i.e. list libraries that do X), and then I’ll actually read the documentation. I have coworkers who use it for personal projects (not sure what they use), and that’s also part of what I’ve listed above (i.e. the generating documentation part).
But I very rarely use AI, because I very rarely start projects from scratch. 99% of my work is updates to existing projects, so it’s really not that useful.
