Nothing you wrote is connected in any way to the comment I wrote.

Have you read the code the AI produced? Do you understand all of it? Is it bloated? Would you be proud to say you wrote it?

I don't care how fast you created something. You didn't create it, the AI did, and you have no control over it, the AI does.

An engineer doesn't care about how fast something is made (at least, not as a primary metric engineering). A salesman cares about how fast they can push to market.

It's clear HN is a bastion of salesmen who happen to have "engineer" in their work title. But the mentality towards actual engineering makes it clear they are primarily salesmen.

That is absurd, these are tools only my own team use. Why would I not care whether I had them in a month or two, or fur many of these tools quite possibly never because we don’t have the spare capacity for how long it would take without AI?

>Why would I not care whether I had them in a month or two,

Because you're thinking like a salesman. What difference does a month make for a supportive tool without financial incentive? Why can't you justify a month of development without the idea of corporate breathing down you neck?
