Been talking with a lot of engineers recently about using AI editors.

A trend is emerging: if you are proficient with the LSP and know shortcuts to navigate and have a good typing speed, using AI is a net negative.

The micro-interruptions, the http latency, and the inaccuracy is just worse.

So truly AI for coding seems to be a floor raiser, without touching the ceiling much

i wonder if the true unlock is more net positive people coding? 

and then that “burden” doesn’t go fully to eng 

maybe not production code but for example could help with internal tools that need to be spun up and maybe you don’t need a dedicated engineer that spends 0.2 FTE as a person helping an ops team

yeah totally - i would call myself a hacky dev where i’ve built some things and understand programming but wouldn’t want to push to prod necessarily and it’s been a huge help

I’m reaching a similar conclusion as this. 

PMF is with people who could previously not code.
