because you need to consider the context window, thus separate the prompts by task. Separating by tasks and planning things out is still your own work, no AI can replace that. assuming you do that properly, AI-generating the code may save you up to 15% of your full work time. Please reread my comment: "If you do not plan out the architecture soundly", planning includes breaking the task down and make multiple prompts.

Our job is to break problems down into simpler ones until they are easily solvable, and if a machine simplifies the last steps, it is fine.
