@Possiblydrew Have you actually tried the current Coding assist AIs?
Because if you had, you would be surprised they are not "random word generators" but actually very useful.
You can try https://antigravity.google for free on your own code on your own machine (Linux is fine) and ask it to do your own choice of tasks.
If you want to come back and tell me you found rand() in an overcoat, well, OK. But I think you will be very surprised.

@hopeless @Possiblydrew Sure, and if you're technically competent in the code you're asking it to generate, and treat it with appropriate suspicion and scrutiny that is only possible because you have that expertise - yeah, it can probably be useful. But to use it for something you don't have expertise in so you can't possibly exercise that scrutiny???
