This post calls out how you can't argue with these people because they say its fine to ship bugs because the agents will fix them so quickly and at a scale humans can't do!"

the top reply is from someone doing exactly that, arguing "but the agents are so fast!"

Yeah: If the tools aren't good enough and fast enough to fix the bugs before release, what makes anyone think they'll be able to so easily catch up afterwards?

Maybe they're assuming that doubling the code-base/features is more beneficial versus the damage from doubling the number of bugs... Well, at least for this quarter's news to investors...

I was talking with a friend in the early days of AI boom. I argued that over-reliance in AI will create all kinds of catastrophes.

The answer I got is "It's game theory. Someone will do it, and you'll be forced to do it, too. It can't be that bad".

I mean, yes, logic is useful, but ignorance of risks? Assuming that moving blazingly fast and pulverizing things will result in good eventually?

This AI thing is not progressing well. I don't like this.
