Good points on code assistants effecting language/framework usage. Myself I've found that copilot will happily suggest usages that were deprecated 10 years ago and waste a couple hours of time.



Doesn't surprise me. Copilot often suggests nonexistent functions in libraries I've written, which code it's seen many times. Though it's occasionally useful, it probably doesn't save me any time overall. If work didn't pay for it, I certainly wouldn't use it.


have you tried ClaudeDev? I find its very good.

Cursor is quite good too.

I find myself not being able to write off code-gen tools anymore. They are quite good and getting better and cheaper.

I'm actually a bit worried for software development occupations especially frontend.
