No I kind of see this too, but the 80% is very much the more simple stuff. AI genuinely saves me some time, but I always notice that if I try to "finish" a relatively complex task that's a bit unique in some regards, when a bit more complex work is necessary, something slightly domain-related maybe, I start prompting and prompting and banging my head against the terminal window to make it try to understand the issue, but somehow it still doesn't turn out well at all, and I end up throwing out most of the work done from that point on.

Sometimes it looks like some of that comes from AI generally being very very sure of its initial idea "The issue is actually very simple, it's because..." and then it starts running around in circles once it tries and fails, you can pull it out with a bit more prompting, but it's tough. The thing is, it is sometimes actually right, from the very beginning, but if it isn't...

This is just my own perspective after working with these agents for some time, I've definitely heard of people having different experiences.
