"Just give me this and I'll do the rest" is actually a pretty great workflow, in my experience. AI isn't at the point where you can just set it loose to work on its own but as a collaborator it saves me a huge amount of hassle and time.
In my experience about 1 percent of suggestions are of that quality, and that's only for snippets of a few lines of code at most. It almost certainly wastes more time than it saves.
I'm a hobbyist, but I've found it to be pretty helpful. Seems like main thing is chunking requests down.
If it's a domain I'm completely unfamiliar with then it's not a good fit because I'm no longer able to identify where it's gone off the rails.
What does "chunking requests down" mean?
Just splitting something up into smaller tasks.
I'm sure I don't need to tell you, but you wouldn't be like "chatgpt write me an app for telling me the weather" you'd be like "I'm building an app in such and such a framework and working with such and such an API, how would I format this request" (or whatever)
