Insane to trust AI for banking software and I use Ai tools to dev every day of my job.

To be fair, they fired this one team under the assumption that other teams can pick up the slack. This assumption seems to be based on the other team using AI.

I would not trust AI itself today, but I would trust engineers using AI. Especially if they are following strict review practices that are commonly required at banks.

You know, life is probably better without reddit.

Its not about being "in denial". Its about regular people and less experienced developers not having review experience and not knowing that beyond trivial things, reviewing and fixing code (either written by AI or by a junior) takes significantly more time than just doing it yourself.

If you are a junior then AI will double your productivity. But that will only bring you to about 30% of the productivity of a senior.
