People are in denial. They literally think they will wake up tomorrow and all the AI-generated code will somehow be useless, and we'll go back to typing code by hand like Neanderthals.

Every large company will eventually ban vibe-coding. Vibe-coding is now generating as much technical debt as 10 regular developers in half the time. Vibe-coding is awesome for a first draft, but you can't expect to push AI slop to production and not destroy your software over time. Producing code is no longer a bottleneck. Testing that code, debugging it, monitoring it in production, and fixing it when it breaks is where everyone is spending their time. We've 10x'd the speed of writing code, but we are still in the Stone Age with everything that happens after the code is written. Here is a very cool tool tackling this: You can build "AI Production Engineers" using PlayerZero and make them work for you. These are agents that do this: • Simulate how your code will work in production • Diagnose issues when they happen • Learn from every incident so it doesn't happen again This is pretty awesome! These agents simulate code behavior against real production data. They use actual customer behavior, historical incidents, and edge cases without writing a single test script. When something breaks, the agent traces the issue to the exact line of code and PR, generates the fix, and routes it to the right engineer. And every bug these agents solve serves as training data to improve the system. Here is a link to check them out: playerzero.ai/?utm_campaign=… Thanks to the Player Zero team for partnering with me on this post.
