Templates for?

I did some tries, and while it wouldn't work most times, it was good to understand some basics. I should note that until december/2024 I would get some amazing results for other coding stuff using o1 preview, but hadn't tried anything Calibre. I have a collection of stuff I use everyday on browsers for instance, entirely AI made.

Then later it was severely throttled probably because of new Pro tier. Now I'm looking forward to trying Deepseek and perhaps Claude. (In my first experiences with Claude back in october I had very disappointing results)

So far in the results I've seen from people trying to use AI to generate programs, the results for anything more complex than a hello world have been sadly lacking.

Nope.

It works OK to introduce you quickly to API that you are unfamiliar with but that is commonly used in existing code, basically a faster, more efficient google search. I use it in that form quite often. Hopefully it will be a few years before SEO makes that use case useless as well. Getting it to write actual code for anything more complex that about a dozen lines is a waste of time. You cant trust its output so you have to review carefully and it often does bone headed things so it ends up taking more time than just writing it yourself.
