Maybe it might be easier to understand if I was a really terrible engineer.

AI gives me 750k LoC PR that's mostly broken and unuseable on Monday.

AI then fixing it by adding another 250k LoC, is not going to convince me, a competent maintainer of a major Js runtime with years of contributions, plenty of downstream dependents, and an understanding of the AI zeitgeist... to merge it all in by the next Wednesday

Yes yes I'm sure Jarred is a really terrible engineer. Yawn.

But you're not any of these things, are you? Regardless, of course you're free to not make the same decision. Doesn't really change the point.
