I will say the MS Copilot is creepily good at suggesting comments in my code. Like get out of my skull good.

For the level which I use it (individual file level or specific task level) I've found it to be a pretty good time saver.. nothing huge, but 5 minutes here and there probably has more psychic benefit than the actual time savings.

I still suck at bash so it's nice to get a simple bash script to do something simple without having to search for it. Or composing command line API calls for one off type stuff can be helpful, or at least I'll give AI a shot before digging into the documentation.

But yeah in some of the DevOps type stuff there isn't a lot of stuff out there for some cases in which case it's worse than useless.
