Coinbase's claim about 95% AI-generated code made headlines. Inspiring? Absolutely. But in my daily work with Copilot and Cursor, I've yet to exceed 30% adoption—and that's with rigorous verification.
The irony hits hardest when AI suggests an "optimization" that then requires 30 minutes of debugging. It's like the old joke: "I trust you, but wear the safety harness anyway."
Maybe in a few years we'll just hit "Generate," but for now, old-school code review remains non-negotiable. Coinbase's approach raises important questions about scaling quality assurance in the AI era.
