That’s just silly. It’s like saying that people who don’t have a legal background are incapable of understanding that the law will impact their decision making.

What I’m seeing is that managers understand the problem but are purposely ignoring it in the short term because they’re trying to stay competitive. It’s just another kind of technical debt but in different clothing.

It not silly at all. I'm not even saying it's a bad thing. From their point of view, they would rather have increased error rate if it means faster shipping speed. This is nothing new, AI just multiplied it. Startups especially want to ship fast and look at longevity later. Unless this drive is countered by someone up the chain who wants to do things properly, it will naturally happen and you can't do anything about it. Well you can, but then you will be explaining to your manager why your tasks are done so slowly when Chad Vibeson over there shipped 5 features and 100k lines of code last month alone.
