What're your favorite AI coding tools?

What're your favorite AI coding tools?
AI is a great coding companion, but you still need to put in the reps if you want to keep your skills sharp.
Use it for the tool it is and dont let it become a crutch!

Working on a video that outlines the new Clerk & Supabase integration and how the whole thing works. Looking for feedback 🤗
First few slides walk through how a typical multi-tier application works, both independently and with Clerk.

My morning routine:
8:00 am - Wake up
8:30 am - Grab a brush and put on a little makeup
9:00 am - Hide the scars to fade away the shake-up
9:30 am - Ask myself "Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?"
10:00 am - Go create another fable (I wanted to)

Proud to see that my @supabase.com articles have taken over the top of the @clerk.com blog! Here's what I cover in these:
1. Compare Supabase Auth vs Clerk
2. Explain how Clerk and Supabase work with @nextjs.org
3. How to build a B2B app with the two
More breakdown and links below 👇

You shouldn't trust code written by AI.
That's not to say you shouldn't use AI to write code, but you should review everything it creates for accuracy and consistency.

Vibe coding is a huge productivity boost, but it isn't going to replace devs. It is however going to raise the bar for devs.
AI is too confident in itself, and that confidence can mask the poor or insecure code to the untrained dev or muggle trying to build stuff.
