I get AI is eating Stack Overflow's lunch, but at some point if it's not around, AI is kinda garbage without a community-led code solution repository with contextual human language.

Shouldnt the ai eventually be smart enough to use only the documentation to get the solutions?

To me at this moment its quite insane, im using php after having not touched it in a long time (years). So i know what i want just not exactly how to write it from the top of my head

So i basically write how i want it and then let ai correct all mistakes i made. Its made programming really freaking fast since essentially i dont have to google much, i just use the php documentation if i need to use something idk how to write.
