I've been doing this for 25 years though so maybe that's why. But the bigger point is that again you're not giving me anything more than "it makes mistakes" Sure it does but it makes less of them now. It will make less in the future. Also Anthropic guys are in the same boat: They don't write _much_ code anymore. They just use Claude code, So I'm not the only one.

I've been doing this for more than 35 years. Honestly, why make this a superiority contest?

My perspective is that claude (the best at the moment in my opinion) cant make unsupervised changes. If you want to allow it to do so, power to you. While I love what anthropic have done, of course they are going to say they dog food and it is great.

The part that I find personally important is that senior people can be relied on to ask the right questions, give the right prompts and spot confident AI bullshit. As such, AI amplifies experience it does not replace it. I don't see that changing.
