AI replacing software engineers
Don't know about that, but it did save me about two days of work this morning as I was sipping a coffee and barely looking at the screen.

And two days ago, it did solve a nasty network issue that we had been investigating in two for two hours with no results. I just described the issue and our findings, it read the code, pointed to a seemingly completely unrelated env var, and said: "I bet this is true on the other environment". And it was right.

Acceleration vs replacements.

Fatty teams will become lean. productivity will become 10x. Shipping feels fast.

These signals feels right at first for acceleration.

Once complexity factor starts to creep in every SAAS will need human intervention to scale it forward .
