Let's cut to the chase. I code, you code, we all love to code—but we can do it smarter with the right AI tools. Here's my no-nonsense list:
Copilot
It's autocomplete on steroids. Helps me code faster and sometimes even smarter. Just don't let it comment your code for you; it's a bit too verbose.
And here is what I'm waiting for the most:
Vercel v0
UI prototyping minus the PowerPoint nightmares. Drag, drop, done. React components without the theatrics.
Cursor
Copilot's overachieving sibling. Code suggestions, nice PR like refactoring, and it even chats. It's like an IDE plugin crossed with a therapist.
ChatGPT
Debugging? Surprisingly useful. Like having a rubber duck that talks back, but way more insightful.
Vercel AI Templates
No need to reinvent the wheel—or the neural network. Pre-built AI project examples that actually teach you something.
Vercel AI Playground
Test models like GPT 3.5, GPT-4, Llama and others without the API key hassle. A one-stop shop for prompt model comparison.
JSON Data AI
Automated JSON mocks. Because manually creating JSON mocks is as fun as debugging race conditions.
Wordtune
For when I need to write emails that don't sound like they're auto-generated. Ironically, they are.
Tiktokenizer
Counts GPT tokens and even gives you the price tag.
Perplexity AI
Got a research question? Get an informed answer without skimming arXiv for three hours.
Copilot for Docs
Documentation, but searchable and interactive. It's like Google, but it actually finds the answer in your project docs.
And there you go, no fluff.
Godspeed

There is a tool called wisegpt and it works so damn good.
thanks! I signed up already "#3235 Your position on the waitlist"
Such a good list, defo going to try some of the few that I'm not currently using! Just can't wait for Copilot for PRs aswell, it is going to dramatically improve ability to become 10x
Yes, GitHub Copilot for Pull Requests is the most wanted AI tool for me. I tried even many times on X, Discord reach out to GitHub Next team but with no successes :(
There are other products that try to do that but it's not there yet.
What do you use to create blog title images?
