I mean, I'm shipping a vast majority of my code nowadays with Opus 4.5 (and this isn't throwaway personal code, it's real products making real money for a real company). It only fails on certain types of tasks (which by now I kind of have a sense of).

I still determine the architecture in a broad manner, and guide it towards how I want to organize the codebase, but it definitely solves most problems faster and better than I would expect for even a good junior.

Something I've started doing is feeding it errors we see in datadog and having it generate PRs. That alone has fixed a bunch of bugs we wouldn't have had time to address / that were low volume. The quality of the product is most probably net better right now than it would have been without AI. And velocity / latency of changes is much better than it was a year ago (working at the same company, with the same people)
