What do you guys think of the growing use of AI in DIY shit? I've been vibe coding shit with all of the major AIs (free/jew mode. because i'm not going to give them any fucking shekels). I'm a retard and coding is white people magic so being able to slop some python code to interface shit using arduinos and esp32s is cash fuckin money. yeah the code always sucks, but run it through a few times, bounce around between them, and you can get something fairly complicated working in under a couple hours. coders are fucked.

anyway, in the spirit of DIY what are some good uses for it, what have you been using it for? because besides fuckin deepfake porn, or propaganda, slopping up your own programs is the only thing I can think of that REALLY unlocks some potential for the everyday retard.

Programming is really the most obvious use case. I've done hundreds of hours of programming work in a few ten hours in the past half year. Helps if you know how to program though, sometimes it takes the AI longer to spot its mistake than for me.
It can also make electronics recommendations, e.g. if you have a noisy line or brownouts on your microcontroller. Helps with recommending specific parts or even circuit setups. Not that you can't find this info on google, but you get there faster.
Also various calculations, like it's quite good at heat loss calc, if you just give it your surface areas and material/insulation type, it can spit out fairly accurate numbers. Solar maybe less good, was sometimes inflating numbers by using bad data sources. Sometimes used it for mechanical guesstimates, load/shear stress on specific parts, Grok has fairly good spatial understanding from images and text.

What about "do it yourself" did you not understand?

I have used it to fact check shopping lists for entire projects and it has caught my mistakes.

The profanity in this post is excessive
