    Disagree on the slop point. By now the code of frontier models works well, and the need to read it is gone. The Claude word salad problem was pretty much solved with the 5.5 opus release.

    The other 3 points made in article make sense though.

      Really seems more like you got used to their verbal tics and unmonitored quality, to be honest.

        DHH, antirez, steipete all said something along the same line, about not needing to read all code anymore. Are they used to unmonitored quality too?
