I've had a bad experience using AI for front-end stuff, where I replace or deprecate a feature only to notice later all the artifacts it left behind, some which were never even used in the first place.

I re-did an entire UI recently, and when one of the elements failed to render I noticed the old UI peeking out from underneath. It had tried just covering up old elements instead of adjusting or replacing them. Like telling your son to clean their room, so they push all the clothes under the bed and hope you don't notice LOL

It saves 2 hours of manual syntax wrangling but introduces 1 .5 hours of clean up and sanity checking. Still a net productivity increase, but not sure if its worth how lazy it seems to be making me (this is an easy error to correct, im sure, but meh Claude can fix it in 2 seconds so...)
