The AI-Augmented Engineer [...]
summary
Three concrete development modes guide tool choices and outcomes: traditional (waterfall) development uses CI/CD, cloud hosting and proven libraries so code‑generation costs more time than benefit; prototyping (MVP/pilot, AB testing) treats throwaway code as fine and gains most from generative tools like GitHub Copilot, Cursor or CLI scaffolding; tracing‑bullet (fire then aim) ships early, keeps frameworks ready for breaking changes, and uses AI selectively depending on distance to the target. Copilot helps most with test generation, not full feature delivery.
