> Still saves a lot of time vs typing everything from scratch

Probably very language specific. I use a lot of Ruby, typing things takes no time it's so terse. Instead I get to spend 95% of my time pondering my problems (or prompting the LLM)...

It can create a whole dashboard view in elixir in a few seconds that is 100 lines long. No way I can type that in the same time.

With a proper IDE you don't type much even in Java/.Net, it's all autocomplete anyway. "Too verbose" complaints are mostly from Notepad lovers, and those who never needed to read somebody else's code.

In my experience the problem is never creating the dashboard view (there's a million examples of it out there anyway to copy/paste), but making sense of the data. Especially if you're doing anything even remotely novel.

If you're making a dashboard view your productivity is zero, making it faster just multiplies zero by a bigger number.

Edit: this comment was more a result of me being in a terrible mood than a true claim. Sorry.
