AI for Web Work

Kevin Powell pitted several AI models against each other in a video focused on CSS questions and found Claude to be the best. I think a ton of coding usage of AI is in VS Code which leans Microsoft Copilot which uses GPT-4o by default although you can change it in the UI, so it might be worth giving others a shot. I like how using different models is pretty developer friendly these days.

I’ve seen Gemini do pretty decently particularly when you help it along with a custom “Gem” where you can explain in more detail exactly who you are and what you’re looking for. I know ChatGPT also has custom instructions which will likely improve things there too, or at least good for a prank. (Another good front-end-y custom prompt here.)

I’ve seen AI do some pretty horrible summarizations of content lately, particularly Apple Intelligence trying to summarize a handful of texts on my phone, but generally that’s a thing AI does pretty well. Since we all should know truncation is not a content strategy, using AI to do it as part of responsive design isn’t the worst idea, so long as you’re checking it closely.
