"Your AI coder is basically just a very confident intern with a copy-paste addiction."
Explain Like I'm Normal
The article argues that treating LLMs like Claude as deterministic compilers is a recipe for technical debt and subtle bugs. It highlights how devs are offloading critical thinking to models that prioritize pattern matching over logical verification, leading to codebases that function but are fundamentally fragile. The author urges a return to rigorous manual code review and testing over blind AI reliance.
