Things have progressed much faster than even the most optimistic predictions, so every "wait 6 months" has come true. Just look at how the discourse has changed on HN. No-one is using the arguments from 6 months ago and any argument today will probably be equally moot in 6 months.

Maybe we should look at output like quality of software being produced instead of discourse on forums where AI companies are spending billions to market?

Where is all this new software and increased software quality from all this progression?

It doesn't necessarily enhance or detract from software quality. You could use it for quality assurance or code health initiatives, but you'd have to prioritize that. Obviously it is hard to find a lot of humans who will (be allowed to) choose that over adding some new feature to satisfy the sales guys. And since you measure quality basically on vibes (how many times has this app crashed lately?) it probably takes a while to diffuse from commit to your consciousness. But I have seen it used for the purpose of quality, so I am cautiously optimistic.

Quality shmuality. Get good bro, my app already uses best patterns and you can do all the things and has enterprise SSO and runs on vercel and needs 39 services and costs a few million to run to show you AI generated excel sheets because you cant be bothered to think for a hot minute. We can't have you thinking you might get wrong ideas about ownership. I'm afraid open source was a mistake in the end because it enabled enterprises to iterate faster than they ever could on their own.
