In your day-to-day work, how do you find yourself using AI the most? Which AI tools do you rely on most heavily?

AI coding assistants have been an amazing productivity boost - and allow me to get a tremendous amount done in the little time I have to dedicate to coding.  GitHub Copilot, especially in Agent mode and using the state of the art models (GPT 4.1, Claude Sonnet 4, Gemini 2.5 Pro) it is great for interactive sessions.  I am also experimenting with Claude Code.  Also using OpenAI Codex for delegating entire tasks to AI.  It is wild to essentially be pair programming while also sending discrete tasks off to Codex and just get notification when it's done and code is ready to review.

One use case I have found really useful is to have the AI interview me as part of writing a document.  I tell it the topic, the audience, any goals, give it my notes on the topic, and then ask it to iteratively ask me questions until we have enough to create an outline draft.  Then we work through each section collaboratively.  It works really well, and I am surprised by the quality of the output and often we end up covering things I would have missed if I did it alone.

Another use case that is powerful is setting up a multi-agent team that can refine requirements documents. Define a main "refiner" persona who is responsible for going through the requirement step by step and asking clarifying questions, then set up one or more "expert" personas on the topic of the requirement, and finally define a "reviewer" persona who is responsible for reviewing the refined requirement, giving feedback, and ultimately grading whether it is done or not.

You tell the "refiner" that it should consult with the experts (including the human), and when it thinks it is done it should have the "reviewer" review, and repeat until the reviewer says its complete.

It is really amazing to watch the inter-agent communication, and the emergent behavior that comes from multiple agents collaborating.  So far the output has been incredible.

I found Anthropic Claude 4 a good companion to suggest solutions or solve my day to day problems with good amount of details.

Generative AI. Mostly use CoPilot.
