thats a golden opportunity for some sweet malicious compliance.
let ai fuck their codebase then get paid for the long time you'd need to fix it. punish their money for being dumb, and do it by giving them exactly what they want.
More like they'll fire you for not babysitting it, then hire some "techy" dudebro at half the wage to keep babysitting it until they get the prompts right (by sheer dumb luck), then fire the dudebro.
The dudebro doesn't know how to program, they'll just vibe code all over the place and it won't be any better.
Yeah, that was the implication.
not such thing as getting the prompts right.
ai can't write good code, and they will sooner or later need actual coders back.
Yes, hence the "sheer dumb luck" comment.
But I understand what you're saying.
