My Workflow Is 70% AI, 20% Copy-Paste, 10% Panic. What's Yours?

Being an analyst I need to research about the market and work accordingly. With the help of ChatGPT, perplexity and Gemini, I get done 70% of my research work. The rest of the 30% is just pure brainstorming. Then if I need some graphics then I use Canva for designing them. I get the images from them. Sometimes, I create ppts too using it. If I need any videos then i usually use tool like fliki, Lunabloom Ai or invideo to generate video. These tools give me good quality AI generated videos. Then nowadays, AI is also available on social medias. It makes the job easier for me. So basically, Most of my work is completed by AI. The one thing I need to do properly is to give them proper instructions. How do you go about it?

My workflow is probably 20% coding, 50% thinking about how to code whatever needs fixing, 10% looking at metrics and 20% getting distracted. AI has proven almost entirely useless for the type of disentangling spaghetti code that makes up most of my work. Then again I'm not an analyst so you do you.

Same boat, and if anything AI has made the "disentangling spaghetti code" part even more annoying. In the past, badly designed code at least hat the decency to also look bad on first glance.
