Are you using the best models? I feel like my experience is completely different. I am an expert in a small part of a huge monolithic codebase that I’ve worked in for years. When customers report issues that would take me days or weeks to debug, AI can figure it out on the first try.
…as far as you know, at the first glance.
Could you work out that it was wrong, given weeks to go and check its work? If so, your trust is misplaced.
You ARE taking days or weeks to go and check, yes?
>You ARE taking days or weeks to go and check, yes?
I've never taken weeks to go and check bugfixes in the before times, I don't see why I'd expect it now. Once we know what the cause of the bug is, validating the fix and writing a test for it is usually trivial.
Yes, but it’s usually only hours to validate. I understand the codebase so I have the intuition to know almost immediately if the theory makes sense. Validating and reproducing the root cause is often an order of magnitude easier than identifying a production-reported issue.
