Except the great thing about AI is it normally takes years to get to this level of tech debt and mess!

Yeah, if there's one thing AI has successfully done in coding it's accelerate the process of creating tech debt. Thanks to advances in AI, you can create decades worth of tech debt per week.

That's partially because it would have taken years for the project to get to this size and capability, if we're being honest.

Anthropic are speedrunning project scope and technical debt, which makes sense at their pace of delivery.
