Read Original

The article discusses how AI-generated code shifts the developer's role from writing to verification. It details the increased error rates in logic and security, and compares workflows: solo developers relying on automated tests, and teams using human review for context and compliance. It provides practical methods like LLM checks, IDE integrations, and PR bots to ensure code quality.
