I built a new service recently. It has about a dozen or so endpoints, facilitating real time messaging. It took me about 4 hours to build it out, fully tested with documentation and examples and readme. About two hours were spent setting up the architecture and tests. About 45 min to an hour setting up a few of the endpoints. The rest were generated by CC. FWIW it is using layers and SRP to the max. Everything is simple and isolated, easy to test. I think if I had a contractor or employee do this they would have coasted for a week and still fucked it up. Adding ridiculous complexity or just fucking up. The nice thing about AI tools is you need less people. Most people are awful at their jobs, anyone can survive a few years and call themselves senior. Most teams are only successful because of the 1 or 2 guys who pull 150% while the others are barely doing 80%.
