My co-workers are well aware they’re taking a short cut if using AI, and take it well if they get called out on it producing junk.

My assumption is the push back comes when the expectation is if the AI made code was bad, that means the person who submitted it missed something. So they got “caught” being lazy and don’t want to admit it.

> I very much want to keep human in the loop style paradigm within our teams, but at the same time I do wonder if my life would get a whole lot easier if instead we jumped on the "loop/factory/vibe" train.

I would imagine it gets easier, until it doesn’t. To jump on that train you need to be fully ready to not care, good or bad.

Several years ago my managers wanted me to move up into a management role. I gave it a shot, but hated it. I went back to an IC role and decided to stop caring so much, to avoid being put in that position repeatedly. Let the managers do their thing, and if things are a mess, then things are a mess. I didn’t quite grasp the level of apathy some people have. I’ve found it much more stressful to sit back than to engage and try and fix everything. I feel like handing the wheel over to AI would go much the same way.
