I know how you feel. I'm 54 and resisted this stuff until about a month ago when I decided if I want any hope of staying employed as a coder I'll need to get on board.

Using codex has allowed me to add bring up my current project so much more quickly, and I'm enjoying saying what I want, asking for suggestions on how things could be improved, and having what is essentially a junior dev who knows way more about web tech than I ever want to, to put it all together. Every few days I go through the codebase and templates to look for redundancies, opportities for cleanup, check on db queries, etc.

Early days for me but it seems like a great way to build a system.

Of course the problem is you need to be a senior dev to keep things in check and know what you want and mostly how you want it done, and look for problems.

I've written enough code over the last 40 years that I don't feel the need to type every character.
