Now that the "our new/next model is so good that it's sentient and dangerous" AGI hype has died down, the new hype goalpost is "our new/next model is so good it will replace your employees and do their jobs for you".

Within that motte and bailey is, "well my AI workflow makes me a 100x developer, but my workflow goes to a different school in a different town and you don't know her".

There's value there, I use local and hosted LLMs myself, but I think there's an element of mania at play when it comes to self-evaluation of productivity and efficacy.
