I have unfortunately have had an encounter with a product guy who coded an entire UI for a feature with ChatGPT - then told me it was almost finished, I just need to fix a couple bugs and hook up some API calls.
He got very angry with me when I told him that I'd need to rewrite the thing from scratch.
- taway1874 11mo agoThe nerve of that product guy! I’ve always been vocal about this ... engineers are at the core of our business because they build and ship. Everyone else, myself included as an engineering manager exists to support them in doing exactly that. We don’t create value by holding meetings, drafting roadmaps, or removing blockers ... those are simply the means to an end. We create value when a product is built and shipped. It really is that simple.
