    No doubt, but the tech firms in India that are bidding on outsourced software projects all have a toxic incentive to produce code very quickly and very cheaply. In an environment like that, I’m sure the pressure to use AI is extremely high.

        I agree, but In my experience tech companies are willing to stretch the definition of “acceptable” far beyond what’s responsible if it gives them a temporary boost on this quarter’s earnings report. Is it sustainable? No. But corp-think has never held sustainability as a virtue.

          A cubicle farm in India has no such incentive as a large tech company, they have to push out code quickly as you said.
