I find it easier to write and understand my own code than following
that written by others, so a program that spits out code I need to
check and understand completely myself in order to spot mistakes is
a step backwards. When there's an AI that can tell me what went
wrong when my own code misbehaves (knowing already all the inputs
to it up to that point), then _that's_ something useful to me. Even
more useful if it allows me to narrow down complex bugs I encounter
in other people's programs without spending hours/days trying to
understand their code and the general architecture.
