If you were already experienced and productive, it does very little for you beyond summaries, a little boilerplate, and possibly search help.

If you were unproductive, it allows you to be more "productive" while stalling or reversing your learning and growth.

Of course, person number 2's newfound "productivity" comes at the expense of leeching productivity away from the experienced and productive people by overloading them with reviewing and validating their non-deterministic generated spaghetti.

It amazes people who think pumping out code is the hard part of a project, when in fact that's the easiest part...

We've apparently collectively forgotten that lines of code is one of the worst metrics for measuring productivity.

It sounds like you already have your mind made up about AI, but I disagree. The rest of your comment make assertions and assumptions to points I did not make, so I'll leave those alone and leave them for someone else to address.

Hey, you were the one who said you were confused - it sounds more like you've already made up your mind and don't want to hear otherwise.
