Hey everyone, I'm currently diving into the topic of AI in web development and wondering how useful its implementation really is. Sure, AI can speed up repetitive tasks like code generation or bug fixes, but where does the benefit end and the problems begin? For example, the quality of generated code or dependency on external tools. How do you guys handle this? Do you use AI more as a support tool or fully for certain tasks? I'm interested in your experiences with practical implementation and the limits you've encountered.

AI in web development reminds me of the shift from manual to automated coding through IDEs. Back then and now, the focus has always been on increasing efficiency—but while tools like Android Studio already assist us with code completion and refactoring, AI takes it a step further by autonomously suggesting complex code structures or even generating entire modules.
The biggest advantage is clearly the time saved on routine tasks, much like frameworks such as Flutter or React speed up UI development. However, relying too heavily on AI can quickly stunt your own learning curve, just as relying on pre-programmed templates might neglect the fundamentals of UI design. Finding the right balance between the two—that’s the real challenge.
For these repetitive tasks, I use tools like GitHub Copilot daily—they save me hours on routine coding. But when it comes to complex logic or special requirements, it quickly becomes unreliable, so you have to step in yourself and critically review the output. My tip: treat AI as an assistant, not a replacement!
