Reminds me of people who proclaim AI can't code for shit.

I wonder if they've used Claude or Codex in the last ~3 months.

    I have and while it seems to be doing a decent job at things I'm bad at it is far from usable for the things i'm actually good at

    Which is often a sign for something not being good at anything, only you not being good at assessing something you don't have expertise in.

    Yes exactly. At least for now, use the AI for things you are not expert at.

    I suck at graphic design so I get nanobanana to do that for me.

    For simple bugs or creating testcases or easy to describe new features, Codex does it because it does a good job 85%+ of the time saving me a lot.

    For really complex race conditions or vast complex enterprise applications... I'm literally an expert at debugging, a minority of human practitioners are better than me. Ofc I do that myself.
