    I use it for programming questions.

    • immediate replies so I don’t have to switch tasks while praying for an answer

    • no suggestions that I just do the whole thing differently

    • infinite patience

      Don’t forget the other benefits of using AI for programming:

      • It may make up shit that doesn’t exist or just give you wrong syntax

      • It will give you the same wrong answer repeatedly until you get irritated and it hangs up on you

      • Is way too goddamned excited while giving you shit answers until you run out of patience

      I like using it for help, but goddamn do I want to throw my laptop out the window some days.

        💯. Although sometimes I feel like berating the AI is more satisfying; it’s all his fault I haven’t solved this yet!
