I write mostly boilerplate and I'd rather have the AI do it. The AI is also slow, which is great, which allows me to run 2 or 3 AI workspaces working on different tickets/problems at the same time.

Where AI especially excels is helping me do maintenance tickets on software I rarely touch (or sometimes never have touched). It can quickly read the codebase, and together we can quickly arrive at the place where the patch/problem lies and quickly correct it.

I haven't written anything "new" in terms of code in years, so I'm not really learning anything from coding manually but I do love solving problems for my customers.
