I think it's both true that you can't really write an entire app with just AI... At least not easily.
But also I don't buy that AI doesn't make me more productive. I'm not allowed to use it on my actual code but I have used it several times to generate one-off scripts and visualisations and for those it can easily save hours. They aren't software I need to edit myself though.
How dare you!
