I know I know. I wanted to import data from a web page - title and publishing dates from Stephen King books. I wanted to update my caliber library with the correct metadata from the online source.
I tried three different AI’s. Claude. Pi. And ChatGPT. I’ve spent all day copying and pasting error messages copying pasting new scripts running scripts copying and pasting error messages etc etc etc.
I could have gone line by line through my caliber library manually in much less time than I have spent doing this.
There’s no question the AI knows how to program in Python better than I do. What hope do I have of ever reducing my workload significantly using Python?
Sounds to me like the AI was programming using you instead of the other way around.
Did you copy and paste back and forth without learning or understanding anything? Or did you read and assess the results, and try to understand errors and issues?
