    stats published elsewhere show experienced programmers loose productivity using these new tools because they have to debug and fix things.

    I think such tools work better for inexperienced programmers who are making small code stuff, like school assignments and self teaching, or need a skeleton made to fill in later.

    The problem is that this is not where the big money is at, so a bubble and questionable actions have occurred trying to capitalize on it.

      Our team isn’t using it to generate huge swaths of code, just boilerplates for tedious stuff.

      When I use it, I use it to crap out boilerplate stuff. Give me a flask app with these endoints, setup debug logging and give me jinga templates with these variables.

      I don’t need to write that code more times in my life :)
