Everyone is NOT making that tradeoff. Maybe we will be forced into it someday, but my team is leveraging AI to increase the quality of code far beyond what we would have done without it. Some of us are using it to engineer better solutions.

Example: we are putting a lot of energy into removing technical debt, reorganizing the code to remove unneeded abstraction and complexity, and creating missing tests and automation. We're not just burping out new untested and poorly reviewed functionality.

It’s a phase, for sure things will turn around in the future once the hype of “oh we can now ship fast” is gone.

fwiw I’ve had this open source browser ui that sits on top of your claude code, gemini and codex and picks up/starts your sessions from any device https://github.com/siteboon/claudecodeui

the point is VC money
