Every time I read stuff like this I honestly wonder if the author is using the same tools I am.
I can have Claude Code bang out everything from boilerplate to a working prototype to a complex algorithm embedded in a very complex and confusing code base. It’s not correct 100% of the time but it’s pretty damn close. And often times it comes up with algorithms I would have never thought of initially.
These things are at least a 10x multiple of my time.
