That's the thing though. My hobby projects have been doing better than ever. My job is more or less the same it's always been, just with more unit tests (that cover...who knows) and slightly better tooling/CI because it's now less tedious to fix that shit when it gets mangled.

AI is very good at creating small codebases. It still sucks shit at maintaining huge ones where someone needs to understand how the codebase works.

I've seen what happens when companies just vibe code an entire mega codebase and it's really bad. AI is fucking terrible at grand architecture decisions.
