Boilerplate code is where it rocks. The syntax for that API function you use once every 5 years and no way remember, it's got you covered. It can knock out helper functions like a boss too. Nothing complex, that takes too long to fix, but the text filter and type conversion stuff is quicker than typing them out yourself.

    Thank you! This is exactly what I use it for. Things that would take 1/2 - 1 days because I need to spend much of that time remembering the syntax or which libraries to import. But AI can get 90% of the way there in 5 minutes and 97% of the way with like two more iterations on the prompt.
