My use case is wildly different from CSS, HTML etc. I use numerical algorithms to solve problems in pure mathematics. AI models are now better than me and my colleagues at writing code, and we are pretty good in the first place. The catch is that we do not ask AI to write whole applications, we ask it to implement building blocks like "For finite X subset R^d, find all pairs (Y, Z), Y subset X, Z subset X such that Y and Z are congruent".
