"This outfit is bold and shows off your strong personality, a perfect choice for today!"

It's May and you chose a bright green and red sweater with a picture of Santa Clause.

"You're absolutely right! Maybe this would be a better choice for December."

I work routinely from coffee shops. Literally like 80% of people on their laptops have Claude or ChatGPT open when I glance over. Listen, I do think AI still has a LONG way to go to be the automation & productivity utopia we so desperately crave, but underselling its usefulness is just silly at this point.

I used to be vehemently against AI coding just a few years ago, because the hallucinations were a deal-breaker. However, these days, most of my code is written using AI. It's still very "corporate junior" so it takes constant tweaking, hand re-writing, or total re-architecting, but it's leaps and bounds better than what it was. And I find myself working on the interesting parts: product, user experience, novel algorithms, etc.

These Gen AI tools have proved to be incredibly sticky!

I genuinely don’t think when Chat GPT 3.5 launched, that anyone believed people would integrate the usage of them as quickly and solidly as they have.

So Im with you on this, people use Chat GPT, Claude and so on for anything and everything.

You’re on HN and know 4 females, that’s the truly interesting part :-)
