Just speaking from my experience, here; when I sit down to code, actually typing out the logic of what I want is not what I spend my time doing. I research optimization options, I prep old code for new features and refactor cruft. I have an AI-enabled editor, but besides generating boilerplate the AI-based features are mostly useless. My job doesn't rely on endlessly generating buggy code, it depends on the existence of endless buggy code that needs correcting.
