I (kind of) writing code by hand.

Recently, I saw a petition called we write code by hand. I intent to sign it but in the end I didn't. I wrote 100% of the code in the OneCut project by hand but heavily use AI to help to craft it. I'm not that pure to not using AI at all.

What I use AI for:

1. Research different ffmpeg filter options.
2. Debug some issues in OneCut.
3. Experiment with AI-based video editing.

What I don't use AI for:

1. Writing code.
2. Writing MD files.

I think we need to keep a clear mind (mental model) about what you write so writing all lines of code is necessary. However, you can use AI to dramatically cut the time to research on a new topic.
