so, what i am gathering is that some people in this comment section read "typing faster" literally, while other people are reading it and translating it to "iterating faster".

"Code writing speed" is just a superficial dismissal of AI without consideration as to whether AI is being used well or poorly for the task at hand. Saying that AI is the same as making people type faster, or that AI only produces slop, etc, is a very self limiting mindset.
