If you are a programmer using an AI LLM to help you code, are you finding it speeding you up or slowing you down? What impact has it had on your programming?

When I solved one issue (usually by moving code from one place to another), it usually breaks another issue. I have been stuck in these cycles many times. Moreover, testing Chrome extension is a manual and tedious process that wasn’t automated. I think I spent more time using AI to make this extension than if I had learnt how Chrome extensions are being designed and make informed edits.

Yeah I heavily depended on AI to make this Chrome extension (with Cursor). I had no experience in building a Chrome extension before this. The code is here

However, if there is AI that is able to make this Chrome extension for me end-to-end with testing and minimal feedback provided, using AI here would have saved me time. This is not yet the case.

I want the extension to send a desktop notification when it is complete

I want the extension to read the storage for the API key

I recently used AI to make this Chrome extension. The chrome extension works like this.

First you write in human language what you want to do

I no longer need to browse the Internet to find out the certain Trino keywords, or how to aggregate a pandas DataFrame. It also works on wherever you have Jupyter Notebook. I wrote the Chrome extension, the data is only exposed to OpenAI and probably Google.

I want the extension to be activated when the extension icon is clicked

I binded Cmd+K to initialize generation

It calls the OpenAI o1-mini to prefil the cell

Ultimately, you need to decide how much do you need to learn. It is okay to delegate to AI if you don’t intend to learn the things you don’t need to learn.

Is there any way that I can sign up for multiple newsletters from as many companies as possible at once using a single form?

I want to minimize the requested permissions where possible

I want the extension to bring the user to the option page if the API key is missing

Even though the interface looks simple, it was not easy to make all of the features work at once.

Veritatis voluptatem autem enim similique quo quasi magnam tempora.

I want the extension to read and write content of the current page, specifically the `Jupyter.notebook` object

You also get a notification on how much it costs.
