Stop Treating AI Code Like a Junior Developer. It’s Much Worse.
Treating AI-generated code like a junior developer’s work is a dangerous oversimplification. Junior developers learn from feedback; AI silently hallucinates new errors without memory. You need a different pipeline: isolate AI code behind strict contracts, use property-based testing, and track it as a separate artifact. The real risk isn’t bad code—it’s unpredictable, non-learning errors that only surface in production.
