I'm also wondering if "perfect" and "good enough" are not really as important now vs. when a team of software engineers had to spend sprints implementing features. The rate of iteration is faster now, the rate of regenerating entire code bases is days. We can perhaps over engineer /more/ today than before.

The real challenge is reigning in the size and complexity of the codebase if you're using AI to generate it. I have a bunch of skills (YAGNI / KISS inspired) but it still requires a significant amount of human effort. Knocked down about 9000 lines of cruft this month and I know there's another 10k in there sitting around.
