Episode 36 - Why and how to use AI to become a better developer

Season 1 Episode 36

Many developers avoid using AI in their day-to-day simply because they don't know how to use it. Maybe you're one of them?
If reading AI automatically takes you to Copilot then you need to listen/watch to this episode.
