Who else is not looking forward to cleaning up AI-written merely-accidentally-working garbage code for the next umpteen years?

AI will clean up AI’s merely-accidentally-working garbage code

Nope. AI will not push the envelope in any way. People will still have to do that, because people are the only entities that care about these things, and "care" is not only fundamentally motivating but fundamentally measuring.

My plan is to blame all my bad code on AI even though I don't use it.

In reality you say, "AI" but in your head you really mean, "Analog Intelligence" that way you're never lying :thumbsup:

There's a lot of argument about it, but it seems to me that the idea that our brain is digital is the one winning.

Been making bank doing this for decades. I really don't care who or what wrote the code. It's beautiful.

So you refactor bad code? How do you get these gigs?

Look for places hiring Java, C#, or COBOL enterprise developers
