I swear, I wholeheartedly agree. By the time I get even something slightly like what I want I could have wrote it myself so I ended up saving zero time; there are instances where I actually save time, but it’s about tedious and simple tasks (I had to search a K-tree) or to refactor certain parts that are more or less the same. All the other times either the code sucks so much I end up writing the whole thing myself, or i know the steps myself so what’s the point of detailing a prompt that will require my intervention instead of just writing the code? Line completion is the other good thing about this wave of AI at least
