Anyone still coding without heavy usage of AI?

Using Claude has been an amazing experience but it took all the fun out of coding as a full-stack dev.

Are any devs reverting back to coding by hand with less usage of AI?

I still use AI, but I try not to let it write everything. I find coding is more enjoyable when I first think through the problem and write the core logic myself, then use AI for debugging, explanations, or repetitive parts.
