In high level languages a lot is watered down and simplified anyways. I personally found writing code / software dev / software engineering to be more about trying to design things well with user experience in mind than drudgery.

99% if the time I’ve spend on apps is designing, tweaking based on user feedback, and, debugging. It would be pretty cool if AI could help, with those things, but, it would need to be really smart and savvy beyond a point it is at right now.
