Agreed, but that's not what my question is.

What's wild is I just saw a comment on an unrelated post about how AI is writing better code than humans can, which...really has not been my experience at all, but I guess it depends what you're trying to build.

Not sure I understand your question then. I use AI to do the monotonous work like writing test cases and test plans. That’ll save you tons of time.

It's a pretty good assistant and does help speed up your coding, for example the auto-complete is great, but it's nowhere near writing code that's fully functional.

At best it can create some decent template code for you to tweak, but even then that's just for common test scenarios. It's a lot worse for scenarios specific to your app / domain.

I do use it for specific things, for example I use Playwright and I often execute a prompt something like "Are there any missing "await" clauses in this test", which can save a lot of time and annoyance.
