If you are a programmer using an AI LLM to help you code, are you finding it speeding you up or slowing you down? What impact has it had on your programming?

First you write in human language what you want to do

I want the extension to be activated when the extension icon is clicked

When I solved one issue (usually by moving code from one place to another), it usually breaks another issue. I have been stuck in these cycles many times. Moreover, testing Chrome extension is a manual and tedious process that wasn’t automated. I think I spent more time using AI to make this extension than if I had learnt how Chrome extensions are being designed and make informed edits.

Do Republicans give permission to Democrats to vote for any candidate except for Kamala Harris?

I want the extension to send a desktop notification when it is complete

I want the extension to read the storage for the API key

Yeah I heavily depended on AI to make this Chrome extension (with Cursor). I had no experience in building a Chrome extension before this. The code is here

I’m a 25 year old teacher teaching at boys school & I have colleagues younger than me. I caught one of my students telling her he wanted her as his teacher instead & it hurt my feelings. They compliment her a lot. It makes me jealous. What do I do?

You also get a notification on how much it costs.

I want the extension to be activated on Cmd+K

Ultimately, you need to decide how much do you need to learn. It is okay to delegate to AI if you don’t intend to learn the things you don’t need to learn.

Why do people think Justin Bieber is worse than Joseph Stalin?

However, if there is AI that is able to make this Chrome extension for me end-to-end with testing and minimal feedback provided, using AI here would have saved me time. This is not yet the case.

I recently used AI to make this Chrome extension. The chrome extension works like this.

I want the extension to bring the user to the option page if the API key is missing

Prayers Pouring In After Fatal Car Accident Involving Ohio State Football Legend - Yahoo Sports

Even though the interface looks simple, it was not easy to make all of the features work at once.

I want to minimize the requested permissions where possible

It calls the OpenAI o1-mini to prefil the cell

They say that the Democrats media is able to gaslight their ignorant followers. How true is that, and is the fact that Democrats have echoed that Jan 6th was worse than 9/11 or Pearl Harbor proof of that, via gaslighting their ignorant followers?

I want the extension to read and write content of the current page, specifically the `Jupyter.notebook` object

I no longer need to browse the Internet to find out the certain Trino keywords, or how to aggregate a pandas DataFrame. It also works on wherever you have Jupyter Notebook. I wrote the Chrome extension, the data is only exposed to OpenAI and probably Google.

I binded Cmd+K to initialize generation

Why do people think Mirko is boring in My Hero Academia?
