    Same, but they did set up a self hosted instance for us to use and, tbh, it works pretty good.

    I think it’s s good tool specifically for helping when you dunno what’s going on, to help with brainstorming or exploring different solutions. Getting recommended names of tools, finding out “how do other people solve this”, generating documentation, etc

    But for very straightforward tasks where you already know what you are doing, it’s not helpful, you already know what code you are going to write anyways.

    Right tool for the right job.

      I use it as a form of google, basically. I ask it coding questions a lot, some of which are a bit more philosophical. I never allow it to write code for me, though. Sometimes I’ll have it check my work
