Came across this during my search for datapoints around how much are developers trusting LLMs to write prod code these days.
He's the creator of Redis, few interesting quotes:
> I believe many programmers at this point have less impact they could have because they look at the code
> didn’t you say that you check all the AI generated code for Redis? And this is a good question indeed. Yes, I do, but this is, at this point, something I need to do but that I believe to be mostly pointless
> I would do, instead? Use all the time that the review is taking me to do more QA, to think at the next optimization idea and apply it, and to use LLMs to write a DESIGN.md file where each data structure is described in human language, with the ideas it contains, the implementation tricks, the design. That, in the future, is going to be much more useful. Do you want to modify sorted sets? You open the file, read the design, then you own the ideas. You can open your agent and ask it what to do with the right mental model.
