But that is a HN bubble thing: I work and worked with seniors with 10-15 years under their belt who have no logic bone in their body; the worst (and an AI does not do that) is when there is a somewhat 'busy' function that has an if or switch statement and, over time, to add features or fix bugs, ifs were added. Now after 5+ years, this function is 15000 lines and is somewhat of a trained neural network adjacent thing; 100s of nested ifs, pages long, that cannot be read and cannot be followed even if you have a brain. This is made by senior staff of, usually, outsourcing companies and I have seen it very many times over the past 40 years. Not entry level, not small companies either. I know a gov tax system which was partly maintained by a very large and well known outsourcing company which has numerous of these puppies in production that no one dares to touch.

AI doesn't do stuff like because it could not, which to me, is a good thing. When it gets better, it might start to do it, I don't know.

People here live in a bubble where they think the world is full of people who read 'beautiful code', make tests, use git or something instead of zip$date and know how DeMorgan works; by far, most don't, not juniors, not seniors.
