Is working this way actually faster, or any improvement than just writing the code yourself?

Is working this way actually faster, or any improvement than just writing the code yourself?
- forgotmypw17 1y agoMuch, much faster, and I’d say the code is more formal, and I’ve never had such a complete test suite. The downside is I don’t have as much of a grasp on what’s actually happening in my project, while with hand-written projects I’d know every detail.
- AstroBen 1y agoHow do you know the test suite is comprehensive if you don't have a grasp on what's happening? Not a gotcha I'm just extremely skeptical that AI is at a point to have the level of responsibility you're describing and have it turn into good code long term
- danielbln 1y agoI do TDD. Plan out the feature, then have it write test. Scan the tests, check if everything is kosher. Then let it do the implementation, rinse and repeat.
- nojito 1y agoHow do you stop it from changing or modifying the test to get to pass?
