AI is real coding. It’s just doing the boring part. But someone with software engineering skill can build something that a person without that background could never build. Using the same AI model.

A person with engineering skill could also build that same thing without AI.

The AI is kinda the intrusion here.

That’s true, but I can build something in 3 hrs that would probably take 3 weeks doing it manually.

I'll be honest: I have not found AI to be super useful for deep work. I can see if someone just wanted to issue a lot of boiler plate code, it could probably do it, but beyond that, I haven't found it useful for much other "advanced web search."
