I probably spend even more than 20% of my time away from the computer these days. AI is great for this. I task Claude with something and while it's working I have the time to think about next steps, I can take a walk outside, have a coffee, talk with coworkers about my ideas, ... I'm paid to think, not to sit behind a computer.

There are people who say it's better to have multiple claude code instances crunching different stuff at the same time, and using the waiting time to prompt up another one. This might result in opening up more PRs faster but in the end it's not more productive. Context switching takes time, it divides your attention so your work is more sloppy and less thought through, and driving your brain too much makes you tired which again results in more mistakes. Having to compensate for this negates the productivity gains by finishing more grunt work faster.
