I’m not an AI hyper, I just don’t code manually anymore. Tickets take about as much time to close as before, but the code shipped now has higher test coverage, higher performance, better concurrency error handling, less follow-up refactor PRs, less escapes to staging/prod and better documentation; some of it is now also modeled in a model checker.

So the code was an unknown (to the world) X quality, but now it’s X+k quality? How does that help me exactly?
I don't care to be honest, it's up to you to learn to use the tool.

I'm curious about what industry you are in and the tech stack you are using?

without revealing too much generic saas at non-toy scale, 95% TS + postgres + 5% a very long tail of other stuff.
