The current batch of AI tools are all artificial but no more intelligent than the applications they replace. They start with a Google style keyword search then merge the results so the authors of the results cannot sue over copyright/plagiarism. You get the best and worst of several results mashed together.
If you perform the search yourself, you can find the code the AI tool found and read the real explanation of the code, not the fake explanation from the AI. You will learn more about the code and more about the limitations of searching for code.
For the last year, I search for bookworm results and still mostly receive invalid results that might have worked in bullseye or some version of an OS ten years ago. The same trying to find stuff that works in GTK 3 as something working in GTK 3.16 might be horribly wrong in GTK 3.22.
The successful AI tools are the ones where thousands of people pay a $100 per month each and the supplier assigns hundreds of humans to provide the intelligence.
You might find really simple answers to really simple questions at a level where you already know the code. For anything else, you have to plot out your tests before hand and test far more extensively than if you wrote your own code.
There is an AI replying to my question at one company Web site. No matter what I enter, it responds to everything with "We want to help you. Please respond".
