I just got access to an AI code generation tool through my work. I have been cynical and hesitant about using AI thus far because I feel like most of the time these types of things are overblown.

But Holy. Fucking. Shit.

It can quite literally do most of my job for me. A big part of my job includes doing repetitive tasks for deploying my code changes to the product. I usually script these things, but that requires time to write the script and time to maintain the script. Well, I just got moved to a new project, and I decided to have it start writing a few scripts for me. It probably already did a days worth of work in 10 minutes.
