If so, I’d like to know about that questions:

  • Do you use an code autocomplete AI or type in a chat?
  • Do you consider environment damage that use of AIs can cause?
  • What type of AI do you use?
  • Usually, what do you ask AIs to do?

    Can’t you use global search for that? I mean I do that too but using global search functionallity is way faster and guaranteed.

    You can also use grep command to search occurrences inside files based in a string/regex

      Of course, but this assumes I know roughly what the text will look like that I’m searching for. If I already know what it will look like, I’ll use global search of course, but if all I know is that “at some point this element is put into the document” then I have no idea how that might actually happen. AI is just pretty good (ie succeeds sometimes) at generalising my words into a rough idea and searching for that.
