I think that's one of the dangers of AI: asking AI is a low-cost action (typing out a question), that has a chance to have big returns (saving you hours of work). It usually isn't worth it. But sometimes it is, so people keep doing it.

if you utilize it as a tool it's fine. it can be a good rubber duck or github copilot saves you like 2 seconds to just hit tab to complete something that's correct in the preview. But utilizing it to do anymore than that and you've lost. Claude will constantly make things up or tell you to use libraries that have been orphaned for like 5+ years.

anyone who says "it can help you write better code" are fooling themselves. I've yet to see it.
