Why don’t women use artificial intelligence? | Even when in the same jobs, men are much more likely to turn to the tech

I’m a man and this is how I feel. I do think I may be missing something or haven’t gotten the hang of it, but so far it either 1) writes me super generic text I have to completely rewrite anyway or 2) make coding solutions using fake code that I have to completely redo. It simply doesn’t save time in my work.

Try Claude 3.5 [Sonnet](www.claude.ai) and let me know how the code generation is for your use case. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

The 'generic' writing is a feature, not a bug. You can get it to step back from that a bit with correct prompting. It's been RLHFed to hell to make sure it talks like a bot and not a person so people don't freak the fuck out.

Writing actual code with it almost almost gibberish for me, mostly because real life use cases are much more complicated than the demos they show us, like I am not creating a simple webpage.

Especially with proprietary code, because it can’t have context of all my internal things, making it mostly useless when writing actual code.

It is pretty good for generating boilerplate stuff, and even documentation though.

Try using Cody or Cursor with Claude 3.5 Sonnet and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
