Based on my experience of AI coding I think this will only work for simple/common tasks, like writing a Python script download a CSV file and convert it to JSON.
As soon as you get anywhere that isn't all over the internet it starts to bullshit.
But if you're working in a domain it's decent at, why not? I found in those cases fixing the AI's mistakes can be faster than writing it myself. Actually often I find it useful for helping me decide how I want to write code because the AI does something dumb, and I go "no I obviously don't want it like that"...
