Not even. Every time someone lets AI run wild on a problem, they’re trading all trust I ever had in them for complete garbage that they’re not even personally invested enough in to defend it when I criticize their absolute shit code. Don’t submit it for review if you haven’t reviewed it yourself, Darren.

My company doesn’t even allow AI use, and the amount of times I’ve tried to help a junior diagnose an issue with a simple script they made, only to be told that they don’t actually know what their code does to even begin troubleshooting…

“Why do you have this line here? Isn’t that redundant?”

“Well it was in the example I found.”

“Ok, what does the example do? What is this line for?”

Crickets.

I’m not trying to call them out, I’m just hoping that I won’t need to familiarize myself with their whole project and every fucking line in their script to help them, because at that point it’d be easier to just write it myself than try to guide them.
