I think right now ai does enable code velocity, though the engineer still has to be an expert to direct the ai for what to write, lookup error codes, understand what the code is doing enough to make edits and ask followup questions, and so forth. The 'future promise' is having an agent-based model act as that person in the middle, e.g. Devin's feature release video. It's really hard to predict how far away that is from becoming good enough to work in the real world, though it certainly isn't here yet.
