Huh? I design everything with plan mode and review every line. Nothing happens to my codebase that I don’t decide should happen. With my way of working, tech d

  So then your response has nothing to do with the post. The thesis of the post is (paraphrasing): "if an AI wrote it, and I don't immediately grok it or if the code quality is low, I throw it away, even if on the surface it seems to work, because simply 'working' isn't enough to say a piece of code is acceptable." I'd add as a corollary "and therefore I would never want to be accountable for that code." If you're reviewing every line then it sounds like you have no argument with the writer and I don't understand what your point is. Your very first paragraph says: > If you reject AI code that works then your mindset is still too hands on. Put another way - you still have some loops to work on taking yourself out of. But if you do indeed "review every line" then you seem pretty damn in the loop yourself and I don't understand what you think taking oneself out of the loop is.

    I’m in the loop after the work is done to a minimum standard. The comment was motivated by the complaint that first-draft code from an agent can be brought up in quality significantly with a little bit of engineering.
