You used one AI tool that was never more than autocomplete a year ago and you think you have a full hold of all that AI offers today? That's like reviewing thai food when you've only had Chinese food.

I absolutely don't, and I'd love if you could highlight a spot where I suggested I was. As I said, the problem isn't that I don't want to try using an agent, the problem is that I can't because one incredibly basic feature is missing from VS Code's agent thing.
I'll occasionally use chatbots, mostly for spitballing non-professional stuff. They seem to do well with ideation questions like "I'm making X, what are some approaches I could take to do Y?" In other words, I've found that they're good at bullshitting and making lists. I like R1-1776, but that's only because Perplexity Playground seems less restricted than some of the other chatbots.
It's also nice for generating some boilerplate bash stuff, when I need that kind of thing. I don't need that very often, though.

What's the implication here? That Thai food was invented 1 year after Chinese food?
