ChatGPT as a Coding Assistant for VC Python API – Anyone Have Better Luck?

AI-generated code is becoming a popular way to support programming tasks, so I recently tried using ChatGPT to help me write some Python snippets for the Visual Components API.

Let’s just say… the enthusiasm was there, but the API knowledge? Not so much. :sweat_smile: It gave me generic suggestions, often missing key parts of how VC scripting actually works. In the end, I spent more time fixing things than I saved. :hammer_and_wrench:

Has anyone had better experiences with other AI assistants? :thinking:
Any recommendations for tools that are more familiar with Visual Components’ Python API?

(And yes, this post was also written with ChatGPT’s help—ironic, huh? At least it’s better at writing forum posts than VC scripts. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:)

Curious to hear if others have found something that really works—or if we’re all still hand-coding our way through it.

Maybe get these set up in VS code and then use the GitHub copilot extension.
It probably can pull info from those pyi files if you use the workspace context or such in your requests.
