There’s two different kinds of users, on one side people are more hands off and want the model to autonomously handle longer tasks on its own with minimal guidance, and on the other side is users who want to interactively collaborate with the model to produce desired results. Speed matters much more for the second case, where you know what you want and just want the model to implement whatever you had in mind as quick as possible. Intelligence/ability matters more for the first case when you don’t have full understanding of all the code. I think it’s context dependent for me where more serious work tends to be more interactive. The intelligence of a model doesn’t make up for issues due to lack of context to me.
