I have no financial stake in it at all. If anything, I'll be hurt by AI. All the same, it's very clear that I'm much more productive when AI writes the code and I spend my time prompting, reviewing, testing, and spot editing.

I think this is true for everyone. Some people just won't admit it for various transparent psychological reasons.



What you are calling productivity is an illusion caused by shifting work from the creator to the reviewer or generating generational code debt.

Still waiting for anyone to solve actual real world problems with their AI “productivity”.


This is a bold thing to say about someone and their projects you know nothing about.

No, it’s pretty clear to me that people are getting wildly different results from LLMs, depending on how novel their work is.
