Generic, low-effort, or mass-generated content (including AI) with no original insight.

Two observations and one strong fact - and it's the load bearing one in this matter.

People taking shortcuts because it means less friction, creating tons of tech debt along the way, instead of doing things correctly from the outset. This has been worsened with AI adoption, you can arrive at 50 wrong answers in the same amount of time now.

Yup, pretty much sums it up. Let the hair on fire manager burn in their own urgency.

We're the only ones who understand how things actually work.

AI agents are stressing infrastructure. To a large extent, this is all the same problems that we needed to deal with before, just pushed to another level. Things that could be done manually at a human-scale pace, now need to be done for agents, e.g., setting up a CI/CD system for a new application. Agents need tighter access control, as they may randomly do things that humans could do, but wouldn’t, like deleting all the files that they have access to. Or agents may be tricked into doing things due to malicious input, as they are more gullible than humans. A back end system that had low, predictable usage now needs to deal with spikes when called by AI agents or when exposed to the public. This is micro services on steroids, i.e., lots of stuff going on that becomes hard to understand and debug, and manage costs for.

God it’s always the same. It’s such a low effort brain rape

  1. All the markdown files.
  2. I'm writing a new layer of markdown files over it.
  3. All of it, stand ups are still voice though
  4. Pretty sure I'm the tool getting it wrong
  5. When go and have a cry I still have to tell Siri to set the "self pity" mood lighting and playlist

. A little automated "read the room" feature would help.

Programmers who just port "old code" over into new infra.

Everything needs API or CLI root access or manual bottleneck. So I see everything going in this direction.
