What is the chance that you add a bug?

What is the chance that you add a bug?
Yeah it’s all trade offs. If it means I get to where I want to be faster, even if it’s imperfect, so be it.
Humans aren’t without flaws; prior to coding assistants, I’ve lost count of the times my PM telling me to rush things at the expense of engineering rigor. We validate or falsify the need for a feature sooner and move on to other things. Sometimes it works sometimes a bug blows up in our faces, but things still chug along.
This point will become increasingly moot as AI gets better at generating good code, and faster, too.
