that article may sound a bit scary, but in reality this is all a good thing if managed properly, unlike Micro$lop does. i have built and contributed to open-source projects at a light-speed rate, all thanks to bleeding edge ai dev workflows. projects who care about quality and security are already seeing a huge acceleration thanks to ai, while those who ignore the UNIX principle are getting bloated and hacked.
