    pretty good at short projects and answering any question that has any source available online

    If it has a source online then the AI does nothing but obscures and pollutes that information until it is commonly wrong and/or useless.

    Any “short project” utilizing AI deserves to fail, and it will, because nobody wants to buy slop and the mere inclusion of AI degrades to value of everything it touches.

      why do you think short project means for sale or for anyone other than myself, stuff thatd take me many tutorials or enough learning time that it wouldnt feel worthwhile to do is made easy by ai and costs pennies at most with deepseek, I like automating things to happen like backups sent to my 2nd pc when certain files update, my browser session automatically copied as a second profile to it as well, I would never have bothered manually setting up the automation that ai did in seconds.

      It’s extremely useful for mundane tasks for yourself, automating stuff you may not care to do manually, it’s your own problem if you think you need to sell everything and can’t find usecases for yourself.

      It can also find and read logs better than I can, saves me a ton of time debugging and I always end up solving the problem. If you’re going off ai from 2 years ago, those with no real access to any agent tools or skills, or free models than ofc youd think they are incompetent but they are far from it. An indespensable tool that keeps me from needing to look up scripts and software that I end up not using because of the hassle involved compared to the importance of the automation.

        Ah, by short project you meant masturbation? I think most people assume project to mean job or work being done, even if a passion project. Idgaf about your masturbation slopper but I would prefer if it cost less energy to the grid.
