We could get away with more user-friendly programming languages over the years because Moore's law kept giving us more opportunities to sacrifice raw performance for more developer-friendly tools.
But I'm worried these kinds of AI-assist tools will lead to "code spam" that may increase developer productivity even more, yet we no longer have Moore's law to absorb the additional inefficiency in performance these tools may introduce.
