Yeah I have found that AI in general has a procrastination nullifying effect.

Before dealing with anything that might put me off. I can just ask the agent to do it for me. And then, do something else, take that break, but regardless in a few minutes I will have something to jump on instead of the same blank terminal with the same blinking cursor judging me. It really makes taking the first step, much easier and then the ball just gets rolling.

I see what his point is to be honest though, it's easy to say just one more week of polish, just 5 more features, etc.
