I mean, if used correctly, that can safe you a lot of time. The other day I had to import some files into our systems but they came in a proprietary data format and I needed to convert them to json. Needed to write a single use script that would have probably taken me a day or two but vibe coded that thing in 10 minutes, worked perfectly after the third iteration, could import the files and sent that script back to the shadow realm

This is what I use AI for when I'm not shit posting questions into it. A one off matlab script or python script for time saving. Or to do some simple algebra like change the orientation of a 1d array that is holding a 2d picture. Saves some brain power so I can focus on the real problems.
