This is what I’ve been thinking about when I talk to other people in software development when they can’t stop talking about how efficient they are with AI… yet they didn’t ship anything in their startup, or side project, or in a corporate setting, the project is still bug riddled, the performance is poor, now there code quality suffers too as people barely read what Cursor (etc) are spitting out.
I have “magical moments” with these tools, sometimes they solve bugs and implement features in 5 minutes that I couldn’t do in a day… at the same time, quite often they are completely useless and cause you to waste time explaining things that you could probably just code yourself much faster.
