AI-based coding assistants are making developers measurably faster. Those same assistants are also making products less reliable and more incident-prone. Of course, the "10x" in the title is not literal, but the trend is hard to ignore. The fix isn’t to put a band-aid on it or move slower. It’s to rebuild the quality layer that the old, pre-2024 workflow used to have.
