Who are you people not writing code?
There isn’t a single SOTA model on the market that writes code as nicely as I write it.
I can only suspect these people saying they write no code have zero taste, because that’s the only way I can understand accepting the unsophisticated garbage these models produce.
Interesting take and I don't want to dismiss your experience but it's not mine.
15+ years writing code and refining it, learning. Is AI code as good? Definitely not. Is it 80-90% or the way there with correct linting, agent setup and rules? Absolutely.
It's quality vs speed vs cost adage
I still believe that I can write better code compared to what the AI can produce. But is it really... cost-effective? Probably not.
