It's usually down about at least once a day for me anyway. Previously it used to be down during beginning and end of US work times. Now that they've geographically spread out their servers, it's down at random times instead.

TBH I'm not so irritated by this. It keeps me grounded, and saves me from being unconsciously outsourcing all the hard work of thought process to AI.

Has anyone else pretty much stopped using AI at this point? The only thing I use it for to help generate README's or Javadocs, and then heavily edit them. I had it in my workflow and it burned me so many times I just went back to google and stackoverflow.

Grok seems to have much better uptime, I have Pro sub on both Claude and Grok so just switch between them.

Never really started. Really the only properly good AI thing that I’ve used is AI autocompletions, which are generally higher quality than the traditional ones that I’ve used. Not that it’s perfect and at least the one in Xcode has hallucinated on me.
