@yosh@toot.yosh.is I don’t trust this argument because I hear it often in my own workplace, and yet the real effect of LLM coding has been the opposite. Now that you don’t have to go via, and get feedback from, opinionated developers who may slow you down, we’re seeing a kind of “first idea best idea” pattern play out. Exec level folks can much more easily and quickly create artefacts that they inevitably get attached to, or even ship. It’s “my daughter drew this logo idea” but for an entire code base.
