AI-Generated Code is Causing Outages and Security Issues in Businesses
Businesses using artificial intelligence to generate code are experiencing downtime and security issues, according to Sonar CEO.

The point of the article isn't that AI is outright useless as a coding tool but that it lulls programmers into a false sense of security regarding the quality and security of their code. They aren't reviewing their work as frequently because of this new reliance on AI as a time saver, and as such are more likely to miss any mistakes that they or the AJ made.

Lulling them into a false sense of security is half of what makes it useless. The fact that it makes shitty code is the other half.
But the job of a software developer is not to write good code, it is to deliver features. People have been writing bad code without any AI for decades. Businesses often prioritize speed over quality, rewarding teams that deliver features quicker.
A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any other invention with the possible exceptions of handguns and Tequila.
Now Even Faster™ with no exceptions thanks to "AI"
Now now, AJ may not know everything, but he'll learn
It basically just turns coders into debuggers.
Everyone is QA now.
Devs care to debug code only if they believe in its quality. Otherwise they write the code again from scratch. This is also cheaper than debugging.
I dare to say it: 70% of the devs are not quality focused to start with. They are already happy if something, somewhat, sort of, works. And then not even ship a unit test with it.
