I have played with them and everything I've gotten back has more or less been "Okay that might have saved me a couple minutes but didn't do anything I couldn't have done myself, and when I do it myself I trust the outcome and don't need to look out for hallucinations"
The thing I do think you're onto here that I will try out is I like the flowchart summarization.
Because with that, I can go and validate it myself in seconds, so even if it's wrong it's no big deal, but if it happens to be right I will have gotten a quick glimpse before verifying.
A couple of things to consider:
- Using these is a skill to know what will likely be good or not, mostly how "big" a question to ask. It took me a bit.
- Cursor is a gamechanger for it's UX (CMD+L, CMD+K)
- The models are much better at code gen than even a couple months ago
I get all of that.
I'd rather teach people how to actually read and summarize code so that's what I'm putting my energy into.
I practice that with people who have no experience, and with the right framing it's teachable quite quickly.
