I've had very mixed results with different forms of AI. Just yesterday, I asked Alexa+ to "Continue my Crime Junkie podcost" and it said, "I don't understand what you're asking. How can I continue your crime?" My experience has been that the old Alexa was faster and much more accurate.
As for technical things, though, I'll sometimes read Google's AI overview for very simple questions, like if I forget the exact syntax of a command I rarely use. For deeper things, I haven't found anything AI that's particularly useful. The catch with AI is that you have to know how to prompt it properly. When I'm first learning things, I don't even know if I'm asking the right questions. AI will answer them, but experienced members of this community will tell me if the question is wrong. A lot of them will also be able to tell me what other followup issues I'm going to hit and advise me there. I haven't seen AI ever address my fundamental misunderstanding of the scope of the issue I'm asking about. That's probably part of why AI has been having such a bad impact on the Dunning-Kruger effect. (Yes, I'm aware of the irony of referring to a video that was probably AI-generated to bring some awareness to one of the negative impacts of AI.)

@Scott Roth, that wasn't where we were going with this; our software is an ERP system, so we have certain reports and documents (invoices, statements, etc.) that we attach to emails and send out. However, I would imagine, that, that you could just redirect or link to the URL that this results in for the HTTP request, something like:

I'm with you there. The DC AI Bot's automatic answers to every post in the developer community is one of the worst implementations of AI that I regularly encounter. You can write up a correct, thoughful reply to a question here, and then come back two hours later to see an AI post that's been placed above yours in the thread that doesn't fully address the question. If you're also invested in the Global Masters program, it's extra frustrating because you're supposed to be getting rewarded when your post is accepted as an answer, but the AI will come in after you and take that away sometimes. That experience discourages human interaction, which is what the DC is supposed to be fostering. It's also a bit disheartening to see my own articles get misapplied because the bot didn't understand the full scope and context of a question.
