It takes almost zero time. You can remain focused on your primary task rather than having to take a significant mental departure.
As I said, this topic is likely to remain controversial for some time. I have a feeling that a lot of people are reacting to it rather than actively using and understanding where we are today.
I have been using it actively and across a wide range of application domains (not just coding) for probably somewhere around a year. This use has been under a "trust but verify" modality, being careful and skeptical. And, yes, I have come across issues here and there. And yet, in the aggregate, it would be impossible to envision not using this tool. It is most-definitely a potentially huge productivity and time-to-market booster. And it will only get better.
I believe in this to the extent that we decided to pivot a hardware-centric startup we've been pursuing to make it software-centric with AI agents at the core of the offering. These tools will change the way we conduct business, write software, design hardware, conduct research, administer healthcare and more. They might not be ideal today. These are just babies learning to walk.

And the pain point we have identified cannot be addressed without using AI. Now it is just a matter of getting to a reasonable MVP. We already have customers who want to be in the beta program.
