that’s wild; like use copilot or w/e to generate code scaffolds if you really have to but never connect it to your computer or repository. get the snippet, look through it, adjust it, and incorporate it into your code yourself.
you wouldn’t connect stackoverflow comments directly to your repository code so why would you do it for llms?
To put it another way, trusting AI this completely (even with so-called “agentic” solutions) is like blindly following life advice on Quora. You might get a few wins, but it’s eventually going to screw everything up.
Unironically this. I’ve only really tried it once, used it mostly because I didn’t know what libraries were out there for one specific thing I needed or how to use them and it gave me a list of such libraries and code where that bit was absolutely spot on that I could integrate into the rest easily.
It’s code was a better example of the APIs in action and the differences in how those APIs behave than I would have expected.
I definitely wouldn’t run it on the “can run terminal commands without direct user authorization” though, at least not outside a VM created just for that purpose.

Most capitalist subjects are not well.
Have you met people? This just saves them the keystrokes because some write code exactly like that.
Exactly.

But it’s so nice when it works.

I have a fair bit in approved mode. Like it can run mkdir, ls, git diff etc
