And then 1x developer comes and rewrites it to actually work.

I know it sounds like a good take, but I don’t really see it happening much in real life anymore.

It’s more like the 1x developer gets frustrated and defensive, and shows the 5 stages of grief, try using AI and finds all the reason why it’s bad. Then goes ahead and refactors everything and breaks production.

I’m at this point too. I desperately want to hate AI, but it’s so incredibly competent. People who say LLM’s aren’t good generally just aren’t good at them

Exactly

I would love to see what you two are working on, and who you're working with.

that ship has sailed
