100% yes. The most dangerous developers you’ll ever work with are the tactical tornadoes who crap out extraordinary amounts of code that mostly implements the exact feature that product asked them for with zero thought given to any other concerns.

AI makes these types of developers much more dangerous because they will accept anything the AI generates tha looks like it works, and they’re experienced at pushing nonsense through code reviews.

AI also provides more of a “productivity” boost to these types of developers because unlike everyone else they actually spend the majority of their time typing code.
