Exactly this.

I’m starting to believe that people who think AI-generated code is garbage actually don’t know how to code.

I hit about 10 years of coding experience right before AI hit the scene, which I guess makes me lucky. I know, with high confidence, what I want my code to look like, and I make the AI do it. And it does it damn well and damn fast.

I think I sit at a unique point for leveraging AI best. Too junior and you create “working monsters.” Meanwhile, Engineering Managers and Directors treat it like humans, but it’s not AGI yet.
