And the real maddening part is that search engines have been so enshitfied to make way for AI that’s wrong like 9/10, so you’re forced to rely on it for answers because if you try google, the snake wraps around and eats it’s own tail giving you an AI answer! 


I have a very close friend who is an engineer for programming(idk what the title is rn) at a very large company.
He says he has managed to keep one or two codebases “AI free” but when I asked if he has to review any AI code he said it’s completely unavoidable and everyone uses it now. He’s proud of the fact that they still require the coder to actually review the AI generated slop before passing it off to him.
It’s bleak
