So you're saying that LLMs let you accrue technical debt faster? I suppose that's like the fact that living on payday loans let you accrue monetary debt faster.

- rgoulter 6d agoYes. I think if you're on a team that cares about quality, LLMs can help you write quality code faster. If you're on a team that's mindful about technical debt, you can have make practical trade-offs for velocity now at the expense of paying off technical debt later. And if you're on a team that's unable to care about code quality ("I gotta merge this code now!"), then you can write mountains more code than you can understand.
