I also like your analogy, but it also explains why I find working with AI-assisted coding so mentally tiresome.

It's like with some auto-driving systems - I say it like having a slightly inebriated teenager at the wheel. I can't just relax and read a book, because then I'd die. But so I have to be more mentally alert than just driving myself because everything could be going smoothly and relaxed, but at any moment the driving system could decide to drive into a tree.
