"AI is like having a very eager junior developer on your team"

I think this also applies to AI having an early or intermediate senior engineer on your team.

So in effect it would be having less engineers and probably 1 or 2 at best senior engineers and the rest are guiding the AI senior engineer in the codebase.

I didn't need to hire any senior engs for a while for my SaaS and only needed good juniors for 3 months.

Everyone in the future is going have access to senior engineers building projects.
