Feel like I'm being gaslit, the more I try to use them the less confident I become in their utility.
I will confess it did help me cut through some particularly obtuse documentation to provide a rough example of what I wanted to do. It still totally screwed up the actual suggestion, but it at least helped me figure out some good keywords to dig into.
It occasionally saves me some tedium when I have to do something mindlessly tedious, but doing that usually also inflicts constant misguesses about what next.
But even when doing easy stuff they are falling over constantly, and that hasn't been significantly improving.
