One way to use AI to speed up your projects:

Let your Support/QA/Sales engineers use AI to create features / fix bugs. They're closer to the customer than your developers are.

Even if what they deliver is complete AI slop and has to be rewritten, that pull request is a far better specification of what customers actually want than the ticket you used to get.

Too bad you fired all your QA/support engineers a few years ago.

It’s actually worse than slop, because they aren’t capable of producing slop, because they don’t understand the basics of version control or even how to talk about code concepts, so they require additional training and onboarding before they can even start producing claude-slop…

If they're that incompetent and talking to customers, you are losing a lot of customers that are turned off by the incompetence.
