When I say it gives me an answer I mean an answer purely in the sense of it is a response to a question, whether or not the answer is correct is for me to decide and I put no faith in whether or not the answer will be correct. I treat the output like an opinion that can sometimes give me an idea for how I can better tackle the problem I am trying to solve.

My experience programming is so much different than theirs makes me wonder what I missed out on. I have always programmed on my own, and I can't even think about a single time I have talked to a person in depth about programming (both online and in person). It sounds fun and exciting, but unfortunately I have simply never had the opportunities in life to do so.

For me, AI is the first time I have ever been able to get something resembling an opinion on specific problems/situations that I encounter. I can ask it a very specific question about what the best approach is for what I am working on and it can give me an answer that I read over and consider before deciding on what approach to take. I still frequently get answers that are nonsense, but even then it helps me think deeper on how I should approach the problem because I can ask myself "Are the statements made by the AI true?".

One thing I really like about the ML option is how simple it is to get other people to use it. I got a friend to install it and use it in just a few of minutes because I was tired of listening to his MX Blue keyboard.

For actual audio recordings I would never use something like this, but for voice chat it's perfect because it allows a person to have a good enough level of audio quality with minimal effort.
