Then they demand proof that AI is faster which is of course very difficult to quantify, to which the unbelievers say HA! See! You can’t prove it so it’s all fake!
If you don't do that, you will get A Thing, which may may not be what you want, which may or may not do what you want.
Describing what you want is non-trivial effort and a skill. Unfortunately, the Read My Mind button is still a long way off.

In my experience it’s useless for fixing bugs or identifying flaws (mostly). That’s still our job, ensuring the code is generated as we intended it to be.
AI tools are most effective when you already know what you want to write, or if you need help finding alternatives to a poor solution you’ve implemented.
