Between code reviews, and AI generated rubbish, I've had it. Whether it's people relying on AI to write pull request descriptions (that are crap by the way), or using it to generate tests.. I'm sick of it.

Over the year, I've been doing a tonne of consulting. The last three months I've watched at least 8 companies embrace AI generated pip for coding, testing, and code reviews. Honestly, the best suggestions I've seen are found by linters in CI, and spell checkers. Is this what we've come to?

My question for my fellow HNers.. is this what the future holds? Is this everywhere? I think I'm finally ready to get off the ride.

I am so glad I spent 25 years in this field, made my bag, and got out right before it became the norm to stop doing the fun part of the job yourself.
