AI makes finishing projects easier. But I would steer away from starting them.

In order for me to be comfortable with a code base and consider it mine I need to have written the foundation, not merely reviewed in. Once the pillars are there, LLMs do make further development faster and I can concentrate on fun details (like tinkering with CSS or thinking about some very specific details).

I find just the opposite. Before, starting from nothing was a huge impediment. Now you can have a working prototype and start iterating right away. If you figur e out that you've gone down the wrong path, there's little remorse in tossing it out and starting over.

		Setting up build system and prototyping sure. As a replacement for Figma it’s great. But I would throw away all the code and start from scratch if I wanted to be able to maintain the code in the long term.
