I have a colleague that did it also, moving parts of code and « writing » code quickly with copilot. Because it’s easier to overlook LLM updates he riddled the code with bugs. Subtle things that we undercover later, now that he’s gone. When you write everything yourself you are more keen to think deeply about changes. I read today that Google has 25% of their code written by AI. They have an history of trashing huge projects and the quality of their services is getting worse over time. Maybe the industry is going to move to « let’s trash the codebase and ask cGPT 8 to write everything with this new framework »… OP said he’s talking to AI like guiding an other dev. Isn’t he afraid that he will loose the ability to think about solutions for himself ? That’s a trained part of the brain that we can « loose » no ?
