Why Senior Engineers Overlook Small AI Wins

  Why does the argument start out as "senior engineers need to use more AI coding tools" and suddenly shift to product features?

  How does AI make a better error message? Why does AI need to autocomplete a form? The only argument I see here is for paying more attention to the UX, which is absolutely important, but does NOT need AI.

  This smells like a "you need to prompt harder, my stonks are depending on you" take that was written by AI.
