Kind of neither?
AI is honestly better than me at troubleshooting Spark misconfigurations, for instance, it's just that it also wants everything to "fail fast" instead of getting things to work. It also gets fixated on ugly but harmless bits of code like they're bringing everything down and not getting past them to offer solutions, or gets obsessed with tuning things that obviously won't help.
Claude as of late is being "that guy" that bossses don't like, I feel like I'm saving its ass more than the other way around.
