This is a repeated theme of the article. I think it’d be simpler to write the non boilerplaty code, no? Plus who’s going to be excited to have a job as “AI code reviewer”
At the same time code reviews are hard, much harder then writing code.
So making it faster to write boiler code at the cost of harder code reviews seems to not be a good trade of for me.
I've got a sneaking suspicion that this is what we'll be doing in the future, I see Copilot as a taste of what future compilers will be like.
In a few years I expect to have most of an application built by an AI, with me developing the business/core logic by hand.
I can see that too be preferably not with the approach done by GitHub.
