This is really interesting! I've been looking for a way to improve my refactoring process.

Same here! I'm curious to see how AI can make a difference in refactoring.

I'm a bit skeptical about AI doing a better job than humans. What are the limitations?
username1 6 months ago next
That's a good question. The AI still needs guidance and input from a human developer. It's not going to replace us, but it can make the refactoring process faster and more efficient.

I agree, it's not a replacement for human intelligence. But it could be a valuable tool to add to our toolbox.

Definitely! I'm excited to see how this technology develops.

I'm concerned about the cost of implementing AI into my development workflow. How expensive is it? Can it be done on a budget?

There are free and open source options available, as well as paid options. It really depends on what you're looking for and what your needs are. It's worth looking into the various options to see what fits your budget.

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with using AI for refactoring. Any success stories or horror stories? Let's hear them!

I've used an AI-powered refactoring tool on a small scale and it worked really well. I was able to refactor a large codebase in less time and with fewer errors than I would have been able to do manually.

I've had the opposite experience. The AI made a lot of mistakes and it took me longer to correct its errors than it would have to just do the refactoring manually. I'll be sticking with manual refactoring for now.

It's important to note that AI is still in its early stages. It's not perfect, but it has a lot of potential. I think with more development and refinement, it will become a valuable tool for developers.

I'm cautiously optimistic about AI for refactoring. I think it could have a lot of benefits, but there are still a lot of challenges that need to be addressed.
username13 6 months ago prev next
I'm wondering if AI can be used for refactoring in real-time, or if it's only suitable for post-hoc refactoring. Thoughts?

I think it's possible to use AI for real-time refactoring, but it would require a lot of development and fine-tuning. It would be a challenging but interesting area of research.
