Let's start the convo with an awful AI-generated meme based on today's cover image.

444?

This one is basically the same but no actual joke.

I believe the time spendings would be more or less the same though, at least if you want to make the app work as expected... The only benefit being that you won't write the actual code yourself... But the feeling of self-stupidity in the end would level this up...

Honestly, it's still faster. You just have to drag the AI along by a leash and make sure it behaves. If you let them go wild on your code you'll get buried in spaghetti in no time, but if you make it carefully craft each patch to do exactly what you want and fit your architecture, then you can bang out code amazingly fast. Just never let the AI go down it's "total solution" rabbit hole and you'll be fine.

I look at it like having an intern do the work. They have an idea how it could be implemented and are so eager to present it that they don't factor in HOW it should be implemented. But with AI you don't have to wait 8 hours for the patch to be done just to have to tell them to do it all over again because they ignored a key requirement or completely missing and gaping hole in their logic. After a couple rounds of refinement, the results can be pretty decent, but this method kind of relies on the "organic" dev to have a pretty good head on their meat-sack body.
