I use AI for taking info and restructuring it for me. Rewrite a Linear ticket in a proper format, take an info dump and turn it into a spike outcome or ADR doc that I can then refine. I also like it for the rote stuff I haven't memorized the structure of: building OpenSearch queries, writing boto3 snippets, etc. Other than that, my job is the same as it was pre-LLM hype. And from talking to other engineers, it seems that my experience is fairly standard.
