    There are a few things it does well, like movie suggestions based on a list of shows you like. And its good at reformatting data you feed it. But It’s crap overall. Often takes more time to correct it, than starting from scratch.

      Definitely feel the waste of time trying to salvage junk it generated. At best I might have it take a horrible stab at it and then just look for key bits to Internet search, read documentation, and do it the actual right and maintainable way.

      3-5 lines of code or has a decent chance at being usable or needing a minor tweak. More than that and it just sucks.

      Also did use it with some messy list to find essentially duplicate things that weren’t exactly duplicate. It wasn’t 100%, with false negatives and positives, but it let me find a lot of them easily and the situation didn’t require me to find every single duplicate.
