I wouldn't trust it. When I do check its work, I often find factual or corectness errors. No way it's going to be the last step of defense against its own mistakes. I mean for me. Other people seem to have more luck. I'm probably still holding it wrong.
That's my point - it's great as a tool to talk something through or rubber duck it, but as soon as you just let it loose to slop out thousands of lines a day and never read them all you're really doing is filling your base with thousands of lines of technical debt.
Having to figure out which distros are "good" or not, with the internet full of people arguing about those points, is another entry on the "why Linux isn't a good choice for most people" list.
totally agree with you, though I have 3 sets of $20 bluetooth sets that I rotate on various devices and have no complaints whatsoever. Also use a DAC and $300 set of can on PC, so I know what good audio sounds like.
is this really relevant anymore now that AI has gotten to the level it has? what used to take weeks to setup now take days (react, multiple backend services and infra)
Very relevant, because it typically takes a lot less code to express a feature in Rails/Hotwire than it does in a SPA with a dedicated back end. No need to maintain API contracts or ensure your UI code is properly async/awaited, etc., etc. Whether its a human or AI writing the code, SPA's add considerable complexity that just isn't necessary for most web apps.
Lower LOC to express a feature means better context management which pays dividends for things like code review.
