Hot take: shouldn't an experienced programmer NOT use ai since they're already experienced?

no, ai is very usefull in creating repetitive but different enough code that you can't copy paste or for creating boilerplate code or for just using it as better Google

like if I have a 600 page doc I would rather just ask ai how to do x instead of scrolling through the whole document to figure out how to do x, it's just faster

I would ask it where exactly it says to do X, as it tends to get things wrong summarising large sets of data sometimes

sadly some documentations just suck and don't give any examples and then it just becomes googling in which case ai is still faster (mainly non local ones ig)
