Author here. I've been thinking about how AI coding changes the relationship between engineers and the code they ship.

If a large portion of the implementation is generated, ownership can't really mean "I wrote this" anymore. It starts to look more like stewardship of a system: understanding how it behaves, watching how it fails, and designing it so mistakes are contained and recoverable.

Curious how others are thinking about this shift.
