It's more like:

Start with some AI generated code.

AI code fails to compile immediately, if you're lucky.

If not, spend three days trying to find some really stupid bug.

Delete the AI code and write it yourself.

I usually start off with some ai snippets. Like how terribly I keep forgetting hoe to open a udp socket :|

Anyways, with those 10 lines out the way (and de-shittified) I get going quite quickly

In terms of ability to draw a horse though, I'm more like the right side and AI is more like the left lol

To be fair I can do the above with Ai all by myself when I code.
