I've also noticed so many pieces of software becoming worse and worse, either with useless features (basically any new thing on Slack in the past year) or with a huge amount of large bugs, over the past year.

It's glaringly obvious that poorly checked, AI-written, code is the culprit, I'm just wondering when companies will wake up.

Nobody gives a flying fuck about resiliency, good practices, security or any of that now that AI is there. All anyone cares about is pure output of features.

Any and all "productivity" gains attributed to AI efficiency are actually due to the complete disregard for any care or standard in the software industry in the past 2 years. Yeah you can output more shit when you don't give a fuck, big surprise, AI doesn't change anything here.

At the end of the day it has nothing to do with AI. People have been bitching about bugs in it for a long time. It's companies that give zero shits about releasing bugs.

This comes back to the users. As long as they keep buying the shit software why spend money on QA.

I mean, you're the problem. Did you stop using slack? Are they taking losses because of it? If not, why change?
