I am generally skeptical about AI but I do see the benefit here. I write a bunch of widgets for my website. They're little calculators that use common components and apply simple logic. Think unit conversion or date arithmetic. These currently take a few hours to write, and most of the work is just wiring things together in a predictable way: template, tests, common form controls. I think that this would be a very good case for AI. | ||||||||

I've automated the writing of many of these kinds of things away with LLMs over the last year. I'd recommend giving it a shot. Another tangential use is to ask it to see if there are better abstractions that can be applied that maybe you haven't thought of yet. I find it's not the majority case that it offers a suggestion I like, but I have found it to be good some of the time. Worth the time of asking, at least. | ||||||||
