One common take on the coding agents that I see goes something like this: “Sure, AI helps you output more code, but won’t the quality suffer?
”It certainly will if you just blindly merge the PRs and send them off to prod.
But if you take a thoughtful, layered approach to managing quality, I find that it’s possible to not just keep the number of bugs stable but actually reduce it—while still increasing the output by 2-2x.
