As an experiment, at my work I've stopped using all AI tools and went back to my pre-ai workflows. It was kind of weird at difficult at first, like maybe having to drive without GPS navigation, but I feel like I'm essentially at pre-AI usage speed.
This experiment made me think, maybe most of the benefit from AI comes from this mental workload shift that our minds subconsciously crave. It's not that we achieve astronomical levels of productivity but rather our minds are free from large programming tasks (which may have downstream effects of course).
