  • I mostly use DDG (the stack overflow integration instant answer is glorious), but lately I’ve been moving a lot of my search queries to ChatGPT w/ the browsing mode or a plugin (the VoxScript plugin is amazing for general queries and summarizing YouTube reviews)- it’s not perfect and for some reason is incapable of visiting a fair number of websites, but it does work surprisingly well for specific things.




  • At least the way I use AI tooling, it would be very difficult to accidentally plagiarize code outside of boilerplate I guess. The way tools like GitHub Copilot are really useful is when using your existing code as “reference”, so if you use it to write a simple method, it’s only going to be restructuring your existing code.

    In other words, Copilot is basically just meant to be used as really smart copy-paste.
