you’re probably not doing it right. I’ve been programming since 1984. OP basically described my current role with scary precision. I mostly review the AI’s code, fix the plan before it starts, and nud…

I wanted to check it out.
After login I am immediately redirected to a page asking for $80/year without me even understanding what the service does.
