While I have no particular love for AI generated code, I think this has nothing to do with AI. Software has been unreliable for over a decade. Companies have been rushing out half baked products and performing continual patches for many years. And it's our fault because we have just come to accept it.

> Software has been unreliable for over a decade

The "over" deserves a lot of emphasis. To this day, I save my code at least once per line that I type because of the daily (sometimes hourly) full machine crashes I experienced in the 80s and 90s.

Same, I think I should just turn on autosave at this point to save my fingers

I have this fear autosave might corrupt the file by trying to save while the program has hung or whatever.

I don't remember which app made me think that. Maybe some old version of Matlab cleared unsaved files when hung and with autosave enabled.
