This is the new normal, it seems. My developer colleagues are bragging about how long it has been since they wrote a line of code.

    Same.

    They always say that so proudly too. "It was all the AI bros!"

    me staring at the mountain of shit they just plopped in front of me

    Yes, I can tell.

    Devs on my team are straight up saying in the sprint retros that the code is slop and needs to be modified after AI makes the suggestion. Our repo is being flooded with garbage that works out of the gate but costs so much extra to troubleshoot when it fails.

    My favorite is seeking feedback on reviews on stuff we own and people not responding and being like “I’m sorry I had Claude create 500+ PRs I can’t possibly respond to everything”

    You don’t think there’s a problem with that!?!?

    Sometimes I lament how long it has been since I wrote a single line of code, because I had to do reviews, testing, management, etc.

    I guess some of us like the aspect of coding (as in writing code), while others only like the results (be it the product or the pay)

    Yes, I have always enjoyed trying to create elegant architecture and code, more than I get satisfaction from the end result. I've always found it frustrating how many colleagues were prepared to throw together any old junk as long as the right thing came out in the end. On the positive side, maybe the AI does raise the quality of what some of them contribute.
