> Because instead of writing code, they’re spending - wasting? - a ton of time fixing AI coding blunders. This is not a productive use of mid-level, never mind senior, programmers.
It’s amazing to think that humans have been writing blunder-free code all this time and only AI is making mistakes.
Humans coders, including good ones, make errors all the time and I don’t fully trust the code written by even my strongest team members (including myself; I’m far from the strongest programmer).
The claim is not that humans write fewer bugs than AI. The claim is that devoting senior time to fixing bugs in mass-produced AI code lowers overall quality.
This is true, but when good human developers introduce bugs, at least their code adheres to a thoughtful software design that matches expectations. My experience with AI code is its much less likely to meet that criteria.
