The thing I like the most about AI coding is how it lowers the threshold of energy and motivation needed to start a task. Being able to write a detailed spec of what I want, or even discussing an attack plan (for high-level architecture or solution design) and getting an initial draft is game-changing for me. I usually take it from there, because as far as I can tell, it sucks after that point anyway.
o1-preview is the best model I've tried thus far, but I wouldn't say it's even capable of putting a basic CRUD app together, without constant coaxing major adjustments and on my part.
