BordedDev255114hAh yeah, he drank the coolade from the extra strength bottle XD
But I'm guessing the PM also doesn't have a strong coding background? -

Massive layoffs because of AI they said. But the same number of people were hired again from cheaper countries.
I work for a company who decided to put real effort on introducing LLMS and other AI tools not just in the product, but on corporate life as well, especially on development. It has benefits like we have access to Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf and Claude Clode, even we have the budget to run our models if we want. We saw the performance improvement and pitfalls on daily basis, but overall as a developer, I am happy with the tools and the improvement. BUT (rant mode on) the Product Management got a bit too excited about this. We have a legacy Python service? "LLM can code in that". Dont we have any experience with a programming language? "LLM can code that" We need to make changes some complicated internal project for our needs? "Dont ask the maintainer team, just use LLM to implement it and they'll review" We are not frontend, Java, devops and other focused team members. Everybody is everything.
