Pretty much yes. Except i find chatgpt multitudes easier and faster to find answers then google ever was.
My stance on the power of AI remains that its not a magic button yet. You have to understand its output and know how to use, just like with every other tool.
I was never in a position to code with an autocompleting IDE, back when i had programming in school we were supposed to type everything ourselves. I understand why they wanted it like that but it very much disadvantaged me and my grades.
I may have to add i am neurodivergent between adhd and autism with some mild dyslectic/dyscalculia overlap. What works for others rarely works for me. This has added to my gripe of how hostile the internet has become, littered with ads and unnecessary fluff. Chatgpt always gets straight to the point, even if its wrong (but so are many people). Its consistently trying to be helpful no matter how stupid a question i ask it.
While my career advice was to not go into programming, i have good faith that with the evolving tools and also my own knowledge gain by tinkering with linux (also sm chatgpt is an amazing help with) my disadvantages will fade and i will become a competitive equal to the mainstream developers of today.
That boss regularly causes eye rolling. There is some good reasons on why we use powershell, we have close relations to microsoft and it has good compatible features with some other things we use. But simply dismissing python was really uncalled for. The best tool for the job always depends on the job. And to sort of quote the sorting hat “Python would have done well for this job”
