    The explicit and only goal at my company is to produce 100% of code with ai. They don’t care if it’s crap. Neither do I.

    The more you use it for coding, the worse you get at coding skills. I can feel it already. I’m not a programmer any more. I’m a manager of a hyperactive mid level developer who’s overly confident and doesn’t ask enough questions.

    My favorite is when the ai reviewer in the pr criticizes the code the ai agent wrote. Like ok? It’s trash and I don’t care. Ignore and hit resolve.

      What’s the use case for this code? Im wondering if there’s a particular industry trying to use AI this way or just your workplace.

        We’re a Saas company.

        It’s not just us. My friend at Microsoft says it’s the same there, except they have to use copilot.

            It’s the mandate. We’re required to log our “ai savings” time too. If it’s not 100% they question it and just edit the numbers anyway.

            My favorite is when I copy paste the ai reviewer comments back to the ai author. I really feel like I’m earning my salary then.
