For developers and IT pros, AI can be both secret weapon and ticking time bomb
Briefly

AI technology simplifies tasks in programming, providing assistance in writing code and managing IT systems. Although it has been effective in enhancing productivity in programming, particularly in areas where manual input is challenging, anecdotal experiences of individual programmers illustrate both the capabilities and limitations of AI. Despite its potential, there remains a noticeable trend of inaccuracies and misleading outputs that programmers must navigate when relying on AI tools. Real-world performance remains a vital consideration for embracing these technologies in professional environments.
While AI can be incredibly brilliant, it also has a propensity to lie, mislead, and make shockingly stupid mistakes, which is a crucial aspect to consider when integrating it into workflows.
Anecdotal evidence does have value; the programs I used AI to write are still in use, showcasing its potential to positively impact productivity and problem-solving.
