Measured AI | Note to Self

As a former full-time engineer, I really enjoy coding with AI tools and the tradeoffs are worthwhile for me. AI assistance shortens my time from idea to working code, and using it has strengthened my ability to express what I want the code to do and how. But I view AI-generated code as a first draft that has much room for improvement, so I delete or refactor a good deal of it. I don’t “vibe-code” so much these days, as I prefer to fully understand what I’m building.
