I mean in your case, you are not able to use LLMs effectively to build features, so you should type the code by hand.
However, upper management is excited about AI because it can push features quickly to production. Granted, they will be giant balls of slop but they don't care. As long as it works in the UI, they are happy.
If no one could get anything done with AI, there wouldn't be billions invested i n it.

Mostly I write it in the car, when I have no distractions. I just type it in when I'm sitting at the computer. I've been using Claude as an experiment for some "fun" projects that I'm unlikely to release, just to see how it is. The thing is, at least for the stuff where it's getting deep into the far edges of synthesizer firmware, disk image decoding, audio generation and the like, Claude is mostly just quoting my own github repositories back to me. So, I guess I'm doing something right then, or maybe I'm doing it wrong.
- skydhash 2mo agoI mostly do reading in front of the computer (not code, docs), but that's before I'm used to the project. Usually I spend more time on the couch than in front of the computer. Because that's where I think best. If I'm writing code, I already have the solution.
- ErroneousBosh 2mo agoYup, that's what I do to, although like I say I mostly write my code in the car. I work on things all over Scotland so quite often I'm spending six hours driving to do a ten minute repair, and it is *great*. No, you can't phone me, I'm driving. No, I can't just jump on your teams call real quick, I'm driving? Email? No, driving. It is *great*.
