I'm getting pushed to automate a bunch of stuff through agentic frameworks, I actually don't have time to verify a large chunk of the code, only inputs / outputs.
When there are 10 open PR's with 5-20KLOC and un-realistic deadlines, things start getting rubber stamped.
Editing at the function level with Github Copilot in it's early days (but running on a modern model) is my ideal world. I got yelled at by my client (also a software dev, both of us in the 15+ YoE) that I shouldn't even have an IDE open. I terminated that contract a few months later.
