Wow, just wow. This is the first time I've encountered this particularly AI apologism. To recap:

Alice: "in the end, AI doesn't make me any faster because it still takes 80 hours to do 80 hours of work once I fix it"

Bob (AI booster): "actually you might've been holding it wrong, did you try XYZ?"

Carol (super AI booster): "Bob, actually Alice means it took 16 hours to do 80 hours of work. So it did work for her."

Alice: "no I fucking didn't"
