It really depends on how you use it. I really like using AI for prototyping new ideas (it can run on the background while I work on the main project) and for getting the boring grunt work (such as creating CRUD endpoints on a RESTful API) out of the way. Leaving me more time to focus on the code that really is challenging and need a deeper understanding of the business or the system as a whole.

The boring stuff like crud always needs design. Else you end up with a 2006 era PHP-like "this is a rest api" spaghetti monster. The fact that AI cant do this (and probably never will) is just another showstopper.

I tried AI, but the code it produces (on a higher level) is of really poor quality. Refactoring this is a HUGE PITA.
