Apparently cursor keeps track and Opus4.5 is the model our top 3 devs use.

Anthropic over billed me by $300 last month.

You can write lots of code with an LLM.

"I did ~20 PRs yesterday all coded by AI"

I guess anthropic makes you use a pull request for minor code changes.

Is programming obsolete, or is it needed more then ever becasue we need to fix all the crap generated. Let's just all follow up at the end of the year.

Itll be quiet though if we're still hand writing code though I think

It is the same as writing a story. It ain't gonna win The Hugo Award. We know it is AI, full of cliches and corporate speak. I think the difference is people are used to crap code, where as they won't read a crap book.

Most code is crap because 1) engineers don't care about the software 2) high turn over 3) getting rushed

So maybe AI just generates code at the level most people are used to, I have no idea because compared to my code Claude code is bad, but bad is not useless. I put the bad code in its little corner and it if it does its job it is fine.

They use all those spare brain tokens testing the product behaves correctly, right?

Right?!
