Old internet vibe, simplicity, and quality content especially in the comments and ask HN.
adubois1··on Ask HN: What AI tools do you use to boost productivity?
None. I tried many including GitHub Copilot.

I think these tools are not there yet, mostly because they’re simply producing wrong/non-compilabe code way too often.

I see a potential in creating modern AI-supported plugins targeting specific software development areas like test code generation, auto code review etc. though.
