I have been reading a lot that 90% of their code is AI generated, companies are pushing developers to use AI as it makes them fast. But I am a little cautious of believing them. Is it true? Also sorry I didn't find a css career subreddit so I am asking here.

How do you deal with the lack of understanding of the codebase? The company thinks they pay programmers to write code, but in my experience they actually are paying for someone to understand the whole thing. When something goes wrong in production do you just ask AI to identify the problem?

    In my company, the C level is pushing hard for AI adoption so everyone is expected to use AI to write code.

    When something goes wrong in production do you just ask AI to identify the problem?

    Basically, yes. I am no longer programmer but more like software architect or manager. Architecting the design and reviewing AI plan and code.
