The "senior gets better results" dynamic is real and probably the most underappreciated fact in the AI-jobs debate. The question isn't whether AI writes code. It's whether the person steering it has enough context to catch what's wrong. Juniors learning on AI-generated output may end up with surface fluency but no debugging instincts. That gap will matter a lot in 2-3 years.
