Plumbing, CRUD, looking up & hooking up APIs, docs, etc. Generally speaking, things that are low complexity & low uncertainty & code that you don't want to write yourself.

For experienced devs who already has solid understanding of the codebase they are working on, the potential upside of using AI is rather small. But if jumping into a new codebases, AI (with codebase context) can be used as a semantic search tool, or simply speed up the process of codebase understanding. And when it suggests code, it can surface patterns/conventions that were not documented. Need to be careful though, because it can repeat bad code too.
