Indeed. Management is excited about AI now, until they figure out the problem is not, and has never been, writing the initial code.

It’s maintenance, compliance and support that is the reason they bought instead of built.

I am convinced that the AI boom is indistinguishable from offshoring - there are neat tools to assist development that are now available but imaging your company can be serviced by one underpaid prompt engineer is just ignoring that software solutions need to be evolved over time and planning for that evolution is most of the work in software engineering.
