I think there are still some out there holding on to impressions of how AI for programming worked a year ago. It has changed so drastically since then. Not just in the quality of its work, but in the quality and precision of its investigation, the thoroughness of its testing, the ability to comprehend plans and ask pertinent questions when the plan has gaps. Those who want to code by hand, more power to you! I would never ever _tell_ to someone how they do their work, but I would _suggest_, if you're curious, at least bringing AI into your code review. You may quickly see your blind spots laid out on the table before you. Maybe use it to build and maintain and run your test suite. Use it to automate the part of the work that was made for automation. This alone could free you up to program more, and make you happier, without losing the work that fills you with purpose. I enjoy programming. Have, for decades. But I have found myself enjoying _more_ now the architecting and orchestrating and planning. It calls on different skills, or rather skills used in a different way, but still makes me happy. YMMV!

Pretty much exactly how I feel. Furthermore, if you make it write unit tests and make it confirm every bug via a unit test, it reduces the amount of nonsense bugs it might report if you just ask it "analyse the code base". Source: me, I've asked for "analyse the code base"…
I've found it pretty much the same, I prefer the planning and organising of the projects and being able to concentrate on that side of things is great.
