I don’t know which models you guys are working with, but all of the SOTA ones I’ve tried in different configurations ended up producing mostly garbage.

I find myself having to spend more time guiding the model in the right direction and fixing its mistakes than I would’ve spent building it all myself.

Every time I read one of these stories I feel like maybe you guys have models from 2035, because the ones we have today seem to be useless outside of creating greenfield, simple React apps that just sort of work.

One thing I’ll say is that it’s been a real time saver for debugging. For coding, a huge waste of time. Even for tasks that are menial, repetitive, require no thinking etc. I find that it’s mostly crap.
