tell because the way it was written, language etc. One of the
cases was a LIB in Oracle to read JSON, it came with all the
flaws you would expected, and the limitation of 32767
characters.
The other day I saw a video of C++ (I think it was from Jason
Tyler or a name like that), showing some code generated by AI,
and he said it was very clever.
Now I wonder about the future in this area... I mean for some
will be a matter of copying from SO or AI. =]

I was stubborn about adopting AI is my workflow but I tried
recently and I'm a bit productive overall. Once you have a good
experience with a language and understanding the domain, AI is a
helpful assistant in research and prototyping code that might
eventually be refined for production.
It important however to know when you the suggestions are wrong,
hence they need to gain some experience.
You should try. I recently tried a little D coding using chatgpt,
wasn't bad considering there's not a lot of D code out there.
It's very very good with JavaScript though.
I see AI being a very good tool for learning, research and
prototyping.
