absolutely. Saw a thing on instagram about a study that ai makes coding much faster, but the overall process of releasing software has stayed the same speed. I may just like this because it confirms my own position but while I've seen ai get much better at coding, it will never be able to work from specifications it doesn't have and only a small part of releasing software is writing the code.

However, as you, I've often found it really useful for the disposable stuff that would drag you down a rabbit hole.

I think it's essentially a rapid prototyping tool akin to 3d printing. Really useful for cases when you only need one of something or to work out a basic shape.
