This is the advice I've gotten on how to adapt to AI driven development at breakneck speed - to the point of having AI tooling write and ship projects in languages the 'operator' doesn't even know. How do you get confidence in a workflow where e.g. a team of agents does development, another team of agents does code review and testing, and then it is shipped without a human ever verifying the implementation?

I hear stories of startup devs deploying 10-30k+ lines of code per day and that a single dev should now be able to build complete products that would ordinarily take engineer-years in under a month. Is this realistic? How do you learn to operate like this?

You don't. Whoever's telling you those stories has a very long nose.

100% agree with the "you don't", but I wouldn't be surprised if young startups or highly stressed teams delivering low-risk products will do just that and deliver unreviewed code
