Same things I use it for as well - crap like "update this class to use JDK21" or "re-implement this client to use AWS SDKv2" or whatever.

And it works maybe... 80% of the way and I spend all my time fixing the remaining 20%. Anecdotally I don't "feel" like this really accelerates me or reduces the time it would take me to do the change if I just implemented the translation manually.

Amazon is publicly claiming that they have saved hundreds of millions on jvm upgrades using AI, so while it feels trivial - because before that work would end up in the "just don't do it" pile - it's a relevant use case.
