Just out of curiosity. I have no moral stance on it, if a tool works for you I’m definitely not judging anyone for using it. Do whatever you can to get your work done!

    I’m interested in finding ways to use it but when if I’m writing code I really like the spectrum of different answers on stack overflow with comment’s on WHY they did it that way. Might use it for boring emails though.

      I think my best use case is creating regex just dump a bunch of examples, test if it’s wrong and tell them what is wrong

        re-builder in Emacs works really good for this because I’ll usually have the text in a buffer already that I want to match or replace or adjust or select - I’m constantly using it.

      I tried using it for coding couple of times and it wasn’t very helpful. For simple stuff it’s not much faster than looking at the docs directly. It’s kind of a nice interface for them but it’s nothing revolutionary. And it’s not really much faster then just checking on ddg. For more complex things it often skips steps, references outdated libraries or just gives wrong answers.
