That's how AI is supposed to be used, no? That's what the providers advertise - it increases development speed, a lot, it replaces devs and so on.

But I guess it's only ok when you work on regular joe facing projects, where the consequences of bugs are on powerless users. If the consequences are on Google, well, that's not acceptable now is it?

The consequences for Google are that the people are misusing the keys and the Google is fixing that. They're not banning anybody using proper API keys

Not really. There’s a difference between accelerating development in the hands of an experienced developer versus having somebody just slop code by hoping for the best.

Adopting AI doesn’t equal removing code review. These were two separate choices combined.
