Agreed, it's very strange. I'm sure there are many projects that are like they describe, but it's certainly not all of them. I have worked as a game dev for over 20 years, and probably 75% of that time my team and I have been coding. AI has been an incredible game changer for me over the past 6 months or so (I was using it quite a bit before then, but the capability became much higher lately). I actually have some free time in my days now while still hitting milestone dates, instead of endless crunching.
