I can code 3 or 4x faster using an llm than I can without. Granted most of the stuff I have to write is under 200 lines, AI becomes significantly less useful when the codebase is any larger than that.

I realize I'm also an outlier. Most people didn't get such a productivity boost.

+1. LLMs do Regex for me. I didn't have to break my brain for that thankfully.

80% of my programing work is solving problems and designing stuff. The only productivity boost I got is when working with proprietary libraries that have most of their documentation in customer support tickets (wouldn't be a problem if I could just read the bloody source code or our company didn't think that paying UNHOLY AMOUNTS OF MONEY for shit makes it better) or when interacting with a new system, where I know exactly what I want, but just don't know the new syntax or names. It's handy, but definitely not a game changer.
