    Imagine if real engineers said “we asked an AI because checking the integrity of the steel that went into that bridge was slow and boring”. Grow up and do your job, computer touchers

    I love how their answer to “producing more code faster just means the bottleneck moves to test/review” is “well we’ll just LLM-juice that part too”. Oh, but you the “engineer” are still responsible for all of it. But you don’t have time to check it all, no that’s too slow.

    Your job is now to feed requests in one end and take full responsibility for whatever comes out the other without having the time to verify more than a tiny percentage of it.

    It makes you wonder whether it’s possible to trust *any* software now. If every organisation has decided that speed and convenience trumps everything, and although they still hold their engineers accountable they don’t give them any time to actually review anything, how can you trust anything at all?
