Well that's going to make your senior developers quit.
Exactly. If you're too stupid or lazy to adequately vet what your LLM puts out yourself, it shouldn't be somebody else's job to wade through the sewage you're producing. You either shouldn't be using one or, if you can't do your job without it, you shouldn't have that job.

You know what my favorite pizza topping is? Bleach.
Dominoes REFUSES to put bleach on my pizza, so I gotta do it myself. I found out about it from AI. Now my pizza tastes great! The downside is having to go to the hospital to get a stomach pump everytime.

Here to save you from the comments about spotify.
People: Just take this Link. You do not need to comment how much you hate spotify

Thanks, that's a really cool site! Echoing the other comment about no YouTube, and also I thought it was hilarious that Spotify was the first option.
I was going to praise you, the link, the site, the everything. Fucking great idea. Someone build a bot. But no You Tube Music. :( Big, evil company - yes. But music and NO fucking adds makes it worth every penny, cent and rupie.
I hate spotify
If you use antifreeze, it will make it sweet. Perfect for pineapple pizza!
I mean honestly yeah, I'm not going to waste my time with some junior developer who can't explain how the code works and how it interacts with whatever framework I'm working on. I ain't got time for that nonsense, especially when the code I deal with involves safety critical sections of code.
Honestly if my work ever decided to allow unfettered AI code generation into my code base, I would immediately look for a new job at that point.
I am not a developer, but:
Never kill yourself for something that's somebody else's fault.
It's going to make snr devs get fired, surely?
They either refuse to sign off when boss wants them to and get fired or sign off and get fired when ai code they signed off on causes issues.
Bingo.
Maybe not outright fired, but absolutely open them up to career limits based on what you described.
All of Amazon's code undergoes code reviews already. Accepting a PR is already spiritually a sign off.
This is just explicitly a threat, explicitly trying to find someone to hold accountable because you can't hold ai accountable. What are they gonna do, fire the ai? Sign here to be the fall guy. Fuck off.
Hold the Fucking C-suites accountable
Well... yes?
Senior devs are expensive.
Win, win! Brilliant! For amazon.
Or quit/find new jobs. I suspect that's by design by Business Idiots.
*Get rid of the most expensive engineers and the cheaper ones can just use AI to make up the difference in output. And we can make the lower engineers the fall guy when convenient and replace them at our leisure *
The disdain bosses have for average people is astonishing.
How can they fire them ?
They're not employing them to look pretty you know.
Easy, it's next quarter's problem.
You’re absolutely right!
it's pretty fucking stark right? these are the devs that stayed after management mandated they USE the shit in the first place, now they want the same devs to become responsible for what the shit does to their codebases.
