Engineering isn't stuck on perfect algorithms. Management is. There's lip service for AI code gen, but if my name is on a module, I still have to vouch for its correctness. If it's wrong, that might become my problem. I don't always write perfect code, but I aspire to. If I see evidence that these tools are writing more correct and reliable code than I do, then I will start to take it more seriously. For some code, it matters whether it's robust basically.
