Overall, I believe ChatGPT improved my code quality

25% of cases quality is bad
In the thread “I'm dialing back my LLM usage”
Helped: Isolated functions, small classes, piecewise copy-pasting.
Got in the way: Large code pages, niche areas like HLSL/SIMD.
… For some niche areas (examples are HLSL shaders, or C++ with SIMD intrinsics) the AI is pretty much useless, probably was not enough training data available. Overall, I believe ChatGPT improved my code quality. Not only as a result of reviews, comments, or generated codes, but also my piecewise copy-pasting workflow improved overall architecture by splitting the codebase into classes/functions/modules/interfaces each doing their own thing.
