It will be too late, using Ai code is taking on technical debt, by time they figure out we will have 2 years of work to just dig ourselves out of the code clusterfuck that has been created. I am dealing with a code base built by ai coding Jr’s, it would be quicker to start from scratch but that is an impossible sell to a manager.

Ai will never grow into a Sr. Software Developer they will just code worse than the worst developer at your company. Unless they magically learn how to design good architecture, they won’t replace people in the long term. They are currently just creating more work overall by giving people the ability to create quick and dirty bad code. I inherited a tool vibe coded by a Jr. that will take me twice as long to fix it as it did to for them to make it. I am trying to convince my boss to let me throw it away and start fresh because it will save time but it is a hard sell.
