I have the same experience and still use it. It's just that I learned to use it for simplistic work. I sometimes try to give it more complex tasks but it keeps failing. I don't think it's bad to keep trying, especially as people are reporting insane productivity gains.

After all, it's through failure that we learn the limitations of a technology. Apparently some people encounter that limit more often than others.

OP said "I don't see the productivity boost from AI" and that they don't "believe the hype" without any qualification, but then went on to say that they use it every day. This makes no sense to me.

Isn't this like saying "I don't get anything out of reading books" immediately followed by "I read books for 4 hours every night"?

to be fair, every other comment is usually screaming about how if you aren't able to utilize LLMs effectively, you will be without a job soon. most people want to keep their job, or be employable, so if LLMs are a required tool to know, they're trying to become fluent in it by using it.
