You haven't worked somewhere where you're working on multiple different microservices each written by different teams in different languages?

That absolutely sounds like a case where AI will only plaster over the problem and eventually make it worse.

  • I don't see how...

    • AI can hack features onto needlessly complex architectures well beyond what humans will put up with. PMs and upper management tend to be laser focused on short term gains and incentive this behaviour. So when you eventually need to step back and consolidate/simplify, it's much more difficult to do so even with AI assistance.
