>Whereas when you're reading code for correctness, you're just following the logic that's already there. If it works, it works. How could it possibly take longer than the whole creative process of coming up with it...?
That's exactly the problem. If you "just follow the logic" you can miss important details or edge cases that you would be forced to deal with by coding it yourself.
I wouldn't mind using something like this for mundane tasks, but I would be very careful with these tools while developing high performance code intended to run on specific hardware.
