"The lower the gear in a car, the more control you have over the engine, but you go with less speed. If you feel in control, go to a higher gear. If you are overwhelmed or stuck, go to a lower gear."
"AI-assisted coding is all about grokking when you need to gain more granular control and when you need to let go of control to move faster, recognizing that higher-level gears leave more room for errors and trust issues."
"More senior engineers seem to understand this, entrusting AI tools cautiously. The problem is that junior engineers and non-engineers trust AI tools way more than they should."
"Don't use AI coding assistants as an excuse not to learn to code. The engineers who will get the most out of AI assistants are those who know software best."
