So, I have an automation that checks the month and applies a scene accordingly. I could never get it to work quite right though. Every time it was supposed to trigger a specific scene, it would just default to a base scene. I ran it through DDG AI and it found a single line that was causing the "choose" to fail and defaulted to the default scene. Not a fan of LLMs/AI but this actually helped.

AI is best used for prompting and troubleshooting when it comes to code works, imo. It can give ideas, find a small bug, or just help get it of a corner. I never use the code generated but instead at least type out what I do want to use, both so I'm sure I know what it's doing, and to not atrophy my skills.
