@TheMNWolf @yon @Purple yeah, i suspect many teams understand their code less and less as the time goes.

@TheMNWolf @Purple The amount of verification needed goes up steeply as you can trust the AI. You can’t trust a human to write perfect code (hence tests), but an AI can just go wild and do anything. So if you don’t understand the business rules needed nor can develop at the level the AI is trying to do, it won’t work. But if you let it into production the good old “it will happen and your options don’t matter” kicks in. It’s like having me review papers about quantum mechanics. I can find some spelling errors, but I will have no clue if something is plausible sounding gibberish or the real deal. Well I guess the upside is that qualified and trained developers will become more and more scarce. Yay future we didn’t want. :/
