This wouldn't be so absurd if AI worked in even trivial cases.

Can you be more specific? What are the trivial cases you’re talking about? AI just doesn’t work? Coding agents are not saving anyone any time?

[bdangubic]

don’t bother with these questions, same people will say excel can’t get anything done and it sucks :) people that know and (more importantly) take time to learn are doing amazing sh*t with it

Disagree. Coding--I've heard enough bad things I'm not interested in trying it. However, I recently ran into a use case where it's good: drawing illustrations for articles. Thus you can't say it never works.

It depends on the coding domain, but you're basically saying you've never tried it but you're certain Mitchell Hashimoto, Salvatore Sanfilippo, Armin Ronacher or Simon Willison, all supremely accomplished coders, must be misguided when they explain how it's made even them more productive.
