Is AI Helping Engineers — Or Making Things Worse?
In this week's episode, James and Matt take a look at AI-based code generation tools. Products like GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and Tidewave are everywhere now — but are they making software engineers more productive, or just causing a whole new class of problems? In this episode, we unpack how AI is changing the way engineers work, code, and think.
Topics Discussed
- Why AI is both a superpower and a trap
- The shift from imperative to declarative computing
- How tools like Claude can help you rubber-duck a spec
