ADHD is a thing for some people though. What works for one person might not work for other people. I have a friend who spends probably 8-10 hours a day writing code, every single day. I just can't do this personally, therefore, my ideas/projects never actually go anywhere.

AI tools allow me to do a lot of stuff within a short time, which is really motivating. They also automatically keep a log of what I was doing, so if I don't manage to work on something for weeks, I can quite easily get back in and read my previous thinking.

It can also get very demotivating to read 10 stackoverflow discussions from a Google searches that don't solve my problem. This can cause me to get out of 'the zone' and makes it extremely hard to continue. With AI tools, I can rephrase my question if the answer isn't exactly what I was looking for and steer towards a working solution. I can even easily get in depth explanations of provided solutions to figure out why something doesn't work.

I also have random questions pop up in my brain throughout the day. These distract me from my task at hand. I can now pop this question into an AI tool and have it research the answer, in stead of being distracted for an hour reading up on brake pads or cake recipes or the influence of nicotine on driving ability.
