Keynote: CTRL+SHIFT+(BUILD) PAUSE
summary
Keynote warns that fast code generation boosts volume but erodes craftsmanship, citing agentic AI and vibe coding trends and naming Copilot, GitHub and VS Code as mainstream enablers. Uses concrete metrics: GitLab finds 2020 code was 24% refactored vs 8% copy‑pasted, while a later 211M‑line analysis flips to 9% refactor vs 12% copy‑paste. Recommends buying generic subsystems, reserving AI for prototyping, rubber‑ducking and pair‑programming, and keeping humans tightly in the loop for core subdomains.
