I think quality experience and personal values are more important than engineer cost. I've seen so many shortcuts taken on outsourced work these past few years. AI also loves shortcuts. The combination of the two is not worth the cost savings.

If you value high quality work and pride in what you do, outsourced workers (who most often don't pay careful attention to their work, hence the cost) are not the solution. However, if you're just trying to get something done and don't care about it getting done right, what better way to do it than spending the least amount of money possible
