This is far better than just hitting return, but there's zero chance it's as good as doing things the hard way. Tradeoffs, of course.

If you're saying AI has _never_ found a more elegant solution than your original idea, you're not using it right or you're only using the cheapo models.

(Before someone asks: "not using it right" could mean a lot of things, but intentionally constraining its search by telling it how to do everything is one example. Or by not giving it a way to hill-climb: no tests, no iteration on a solution, etc.)
