I used to loathe all things AI. I used to abhor AI coding agents, too.
I actually pushed back against some AI initiatives at some of my jobs.
Fast forward to now, AI does about 60%-80% of my work on a given day. It saves me boatloads of time. Coupled with figma and dev tools MCP servers, it sucks slightly less at CSS. I've cobbled together some pretty solid rulesets and tactics for context building that have recently let me tackle an entire month of work in ~2 days, meeting company best practices and code coverage and even gathering demo screen shots for me without me having to do it myself.
I probably spend about $500/month on various AI services now, but I'm cranking out at least 3x what I used to (and being paid commensurate to that output, only way to justify it). It can't last forever but I have succumbed, reluctantly at first, if only to get what I can from it before it blows up.
As for AI image gen, no. Video? No. Anything ChatGPT or Grok related? No.
