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.

If I have a question for SO these days then I ask Claude instead and tell it to use SO where possible. It's preferable to actually asking it on SO which often results in the question being edited, downvoted and closed by someone with an anime child profile picture.

This makes me wonder: what do developers, who completely rely on LLMs to write their code, do when the service is down? I realize this is already a problem for other jobs, which require working with SAAS, but it seems odd to me that now some developers will fall into this "helpless" category as well.

Switch to Grok or vice versa (I have Pro on both), or use any one of the other free tier LLM's (Gemini, ChatGPT etc)

I'm sure some people did, by I personally use them every day - for coding tasks, for language translation, for research, current events (Grok is really good at this thanks to being connected to the X real-time data), for day-to-day questions (like my daughter asking me what's that Pokemon called) and so on.
