AI coding is for my lazy days. If I do not want to do a task I will use AI. I tell it what to do and I wait. I have to put less mental effort into it even if takes a few re-tries and several times the amount of time.
Is it addictive? Yes. Like any other gambling activity. Will it succeed? Will it fail? Will generate garbage or give me the Jackpot? It is addictive. A reliable tool that always did the job will be... boring.
If there is an interesting task that I am focus in then I will do it myself. I can still use AI but just as an archived version of Stack Overflow where to get how some little-used feature of the language works. The dynamic completely changes. To ask questions about very simple well documented information is useful but boring. Ask question -> get answer. Not exciting at all, not addictive, but I find that to have all the internet compressed in a query machine (that can also get information from the Internet) is the actual useful part of AI.

So presumably existing approaches to addiction management could be used by those who feel prone to getting stuck in an addiction loop using AI tools?
Anyone found anything that works well for them if they have felt AI to have an "addictive pull"?
