I might suggest that coding doesn't take as much of our time as we might think it does.

Hypothetically:

Suppose coding takes 20% of your total clock time. If you improve your coding efficiency by 10%, you've only improved your total job efficiency by 2%. This is great, but probably not the mind-blowing gain that's hyped by the AI boom.

(I used 20% as a sample here, but it's not far away from my anecdotal experience, where so much of my time is spent in spec gathering, communication, meeting security/compliance standards, etc).
