Frontend After the AI Shift
summary
AI accelerates frontend change but does not remove responsibility: developers shift from code-writer to technical judge, validating AI outputs against architecture, testing, performance, accessibility and maintainability. Expect models to handle ~90% of routine code but not 100%, token costs to keep rising and about 95% of AI initiatives to fail from budget or quality drift. Watch for garbage in garbage out and paid recommendation bias in agent tooling; human ownership remains mandatory.
