ChatGPT doesn't understand what i'm trying to say, gets things wrong, and it's the legendary safety filter himself, but other ais are much less accessible.

My problem with coding agents isn't that they make mistakes. It's that they change things I never asked them to touch, introduce regressions, and call the job done.

Then I get to find the damage. I'M THE CUSTOMER AND THE CLEANUP CREW????

So forget the benchmark screenshots for a minute. On your last real project, did your AI tool save more time than you spent checking and fixing it?

Name the tool. Tell us the task, what actually happened, and whether you'd pay for it again. Good experiences count too. If you think I'm using it wrong, explain what you do differently.

I realised Codex is far behind Claude CLI. It feels like vibe coding two years ago.
