Sure. I could delegate the boring stuff to an agent and focus on what I'm interested in. It would make me more productive, if I could e.g. just let the agent generate an optimizer and code generator for any required target for my intermediate language. I have not yet found a system though which can do that without significant effort from my side; currently I don't seem to spare time; I just spend it differently (controlling the agent and getting aroung its weaknesses).

No.

the amount of coworkers who have said "<ai tool> said X,Y,Z". Then they make basic mistakes with what they need to do and it becomes my problem.

There has never been a better time to be a developer! Less mechanical debugging, more creative thinking.

To be honest, I’ve started enjoying my favorite job — programming — even more. Elegant algorithmic solutions and clean architecture always brought me joy. Now there’s an additional one: reviewing and fixing code generated by AI. It occasionally makes me feel a bit smarter.

I'm loving it.
