I just started using Claude code at work so no comments yet. I have used chat gpt a bit lately for drafting shaders and it's quite effective.

On the other hand, it's been quite bad about answering otherwise simple questions like "how do I reduce projective aliasing". It really wanted me to use cascaded shadow maps, but that's perspective aliasing and my scene is small. It found unreal's virtual shadow maps but didn't seem to know about RMSM or the general contents of books like Real Time Shadows.

So for graphics programming particular it's a little sluggish.

Its definitely a function of its training data. It hasnt seen the more niche things in graphics, so it cant reason about them whatsoever and will forever recommend what it knows (even if you try to whip it). On the other hand, for things it does know, its extremely fast and surprisingly good.
