I agree with this and I think it's funny to see people publish best practices for working with AI that are like, "Write a clear spec. Have a style guide. Use automated tests."
I'm not convinced it's 100% true because I think there are code patterns that AI handles better than humans and vice versa. But I think it's true enough to use as a guiding philosophy.
