"Cheap code is expensive."

That flies in the face of the popular (recent) advice to exploit extensively capabilities provided by AI tools, doesn't it?

We can generate *a lot* of code fast and cheap, but the price to pay is its maintainability.

Heck, Sam Altmans and Dario Amodeis of this world will be quick to tell us it's the thing we *have to* do if we don't want to become irrelevant.

But that's the very definition of "cheap code," ain't it?

And, let me add, at least for now, in the long run it is if the quality of cheap code (as in: a direct equivalent of bottom feeders of the market a decade ago).

An important disclaimer: *in the long run*. That's when tech debt accumulates to kick us in the butt big time.
