This is the part that terrifies me. Generating code has never been the bottleneck; understanding it has. If you aren't reviewing the code, you are effectively introducing a black box into your stack that you are responsible for but do not understand.

While on point, I like the patterns Effect is introducing, but I have already been using them pre- and post-AI for a long time now (especially in TypeScript). It's not an innovation. We shouldn't be surprised when LLMs are better at working on robust code bases with modular design.
