Never, ever mix a clearly designed and stable development (and 
production) tool like Gambas with constantly changing AI approaches and 
models.

My experience:
Finding a bug in AI-generated code takes definitely longer than writing 
the code yourself from scratch.
The opposite approach is much more efficient: handle the development 
yourself, and use AI as a tool for troubleshooting and bug resolving.

Or, use AI as a  'patient colleague' for drafting brief snippets, 
brainstorming approaches, or doing (reverse) documentation, but keep 
yourself firmly in the driver's seat for the architecture and core code.
