I can basically split it into 3 groups.
1) Pure vibe code. No software experience.
2) AI with someone who knows the software development process and some things about software, but can’t code.
3) Engineers using AI assistance, reading/reviewing code, forcing structure.
If someone can pay to replace #1 with #3 it’s very worth it. The quality between each of these tiers is enormous.
I actually got curious and asked AI to look at each module in a codebase, and tell me about who wrote it without looking at git.
It successfully profiled all 3 of these groups and correctly attached them to the right module.
