"rm re[TAB]" to remove a file called something like "report-accounting-Q1_2024.docx" is really helpful, especially when it adds quotes as required, but not exciting enough to get me out of bed any earlier in the morning.

I feel it's a bit like the old "measuring developer productivity in LoC" metric.

As I hinted at in another comment, in Java if you had a "private String name;" then the following:

    /**
     * Returns the name.
     * @return The name.
     */
    public String getName() {
        return this.name;
    }
and the matching setter, are easy enough to generate automatically and you don't need a LLM for it. If AI can do that part of coding a bit better, sure it's helpful in a way, but I'm not worried about my job just yet (or rather, I'm more worried about the state of the economy and other factors).
