    Can someone tell me how this stuff is any different from the 90's let's use UML for code gen and how it's not going to fail in the same way?

    In my experience, spec drift is the main reason why none of these tools work. Maybe they work for one shot greenfield feature generation but in a large, multi developer long lived code bases, specs rot and end up being more pain than they are worth.

      Why would you have a spec drift? My team has an AI review that matches the existing specs against the current implementation. This is very useful and keeps both in sync. If there are any conflicts they are noted in the pull request review and can be fixed. This works very nicely.
