People who write code with AI are mostly just moving their time from coding to reviewing the output of AI. If you just keep coding you won't be seen as going any slower, and if your peers are bad at reviewing you'll look better than them because your output won't fail testing as much.
- ok1984 7d agoIf you architected your code in a consistent way and are good in reading and reviewing code; AI can definitely help you move much much faster than if you write the code yourself, so while the AI is working on your current prompt you can move your focus on the next thing. I consider myself a fast coder, but there is no way I can code faster than AI. But my rule is that even if AI wrote the code I still review and own 100% the code.
- trowa159 6d agoGood point. Some of my peers do run into issues where they managed to implement a bunch of features but had a hard time debugging or ended up with more bugs because they didn't spend the time to understand how everything worked. Basically delegating thinking to the AI (Which is a super dangerous ACT...)
- TheKnack 6d agoAI has allowed me to move more of my time from coding to solving problems and getting results. For my the point of coding isn’t the journey, it’s the destination, and AI helps me get to the destination faster. Maybe it’s because I own my own (2 person) company and the output is directly connected to me getting paid by clients.
