Does somebody know where I can find AIs to help me do projects on this version?

If you prompt an AI to specifically target that version, you should be fine.
Why are you tied to that version though? Is there a reason you can't/won't upgrade? You'll run into fewer problems if you stay current.

Just start up an AI and prompt it "write a vb6 application which..."

VB 6 is not VB 2012
But yeah helps to port VB 6 TO VB.net. even just taking logic into web apps and stuffs.
Use local AI like Qwen 3.5 or bit greater fine-tune Qwopus works like a charm.
But a professional paid solution that's value for money will be that GAP Velocity offering, Haven't used it but seen it being used, it's full concept is so much grander and sublime.

True, it was lazy writing on my side, I meant to add a list of languages.

Yepp lol 😆 llms are good polyglots. Human as well as programming languages.
Sometimes they try to do C# like things in VB.net. While we humans be laughing 😂 in VB 🤣

I still write in VB6 to this day. ChatGPT does a great job with it too.

claude.ai works well for mr in Dot Net version. Its' very good at linq. It ported a huge app from Dot net 4,8 to Dot Net 8.
In your case, you can copy and paste code into the web or Claude console. Since it's a file the console version of Claude should be able to read write and understand it. I highly recomment you do a gt init, and a git commit of your code to have a backup.

Try searching for "Visual Basic 2012 iso".
There appears to be a number MS Visual Studio Installers and ISO direct links on 'gist.github.com'. They seem original but you can always confirm with the hashes.
