This comment is a good example of the double standard laymen have about AI usage:

If you use AI, then AI must be expected to solve all problems, even problems that affect everyone like infra scaling.

And if perfection isn’t delivered, then of course it wasn’t: you used AI and AI sucks.

If their AI is good enough to write their code, why isn't it good enough to tell them how to fix their infra? That's a different problem space, but it's not harder than the code.

  • The software engineer inside us wants to believe otherwise, but scaling infrastructure is much harder than maintaining a TUI.
