For me, coding is either a flow state (when I have huge swaths of code to write) or deeply thinking about just a few lines (mostly to figure if I caught everything). The latter case is when I procrastinate the most, because I usually have an idea of a solution, but don’t want to do the work of actually verifying if it’s correct. Using AI then is skipping the enjoyable part (writing the code) to the unpleasant part (formulating hypothesis and verifying them).
