> Mostly I'm using ChatGPT. There is just no way it could generate 90% of my code (...) Is anyone else actually getting good results for code generation using LLMs?

Try to switch perspective from "write component ‘X’ and paste code without reading it" to "describe the problem, break it into smaller steps, generate code for each step, and iteratively work towards the final solution".

In the first case, LLMs can't do 90% of the work alone. In the latter case, it's different.

You could ask, "Okay, so that's still a lot of work generating code with LLMs," and you'd be right. But it's like having another programmer sitting next to you, helping tackle problems or time-consuming tasks, giving you more space to think about the actual problem.

So, “Up to 90% of my code is now generated by AI” doesn’t mean that only 10% of the entire software development process is left for humans. Writing code is just (obviously) one aspect of software development.
