I agree wholeheartedly with this. Just because AI made the concepts accessible to novices doesn’t mean they have the temperament or experience to not make a mess.

AI has been a huge boon for our development but we also have people that know how to build software, review code, manage commits, follow architectural guidelines, and call out junk when they see it.

Having AI blindly write you a crappy application doesn’t make you a “developer” any more than having Excel makes you an “accountant.”
