Here's how AI coding has helped me : to beat procrastination.
Often while trying to fall asleep, I'll be thinking something like "I need my app to do such and such".
The next day, instead of forcing myself to start coding, I can literally say to Intelij Junie (using Claude), exactly that: "I need my app to do such and such". I'm often pleasantly surprised by the outcome. And if there's anything that needs to be tweaked, I'm now in the mode of critiquing and editing.
