I’ve noticed more gold-plating.

“This random part of the code is slow, I used an LLM to generate a PR that speeds it up.”

Okay, you optimized the part that’s not a bottleneck, sped up nothing and cost the company $100 in tokens. Good job?

I'm quite fond of this play on "if a tree falls in the woods":

"If an LLM builds a feature, and no one uses it, did it make value?"
