Not really, it's been pretty useless for me. But I'm also a very senior developer, I've been coding for 18 years so more often than not I'm stuck on a problem much bigger than the best AI can possibly handle, just in amount of context needed to find out what's wrong.
It's still much faster for me to just write the code than to explain what I want to an AI. IDE snippets and completion just makes it super quick. Writing out code is not a bottleneck for me, if anything I shit out code and shell commands without a thought. It comes out like it's regular speech.
I'm also at a point where I Google things out, and end up answering myself 5 years ago, or asking 5 years ago and there's still zero answers to the question.
I do see my juniors using Copilot a good bit though.
I've only worked for about a year as coder. I've used LLM extensively for work. I kinda feel bad that I might be lazying out on actually learning how to do it myself.
