Been moving our 17-person engineering team to adopt ai and this comment summarizes all of my findings perfectly.

This specifically summarizes a huge gap I think some people have around ai:

> Architecture matters more than ever, but it is easier than ever to fix.

You can prompt away to your heart’s content, but if you’re not pushing it in the right direction architecturally, you’re bound to face frustration eventually.

The most successful way I’ve found to convert those leaning anti-AI or AI-skeptical on my team is just showing them how much tech debt I can clean up with AI. They get excited to pitch in, and they see that it does actually benefit them in some meaningful ways. That set of endpoints that’s been neglected for years? Let’s stop complaining about them and DO something about them, today. I’ve actually seen life be blown into some devs who were coasting for a while. It’s an interesting time.
