I have never had it automate any tedium for me. Because if I didn't write it, I need to scrutinize all of it, but without the benefit of a prebuilt mental model

I have never had it automate any tedium for me. Because if I didn't write it, I need to scrutinize all of it, but without the benefit of a prebuilt mental model. Reading through tons of similar looking code (because it's supposed to automate boilerplate) looking for subtle mistakes is mind numbingly boring. It's like looking at a wall full of periods in font size 8, and trying to find the one comma.

_Writing_ tons of similar looking code is equally error prone. Only a complete psycho doesn't copy-paste code when doing something thats 90% repetitive. Ironically our AI PR review has caught a bunch of those during unrelated commits :D
