Why AI Doesn't Fix Weak Engineering — It Just Accelerates It

Why AI Doesn't Fix Weak Engineering — It Just Accelerates It The uncomfortable truth is spreading through the AI engineering community: Giving weak engineers AI tools doesn't produce better results. It produces bad results faster. I've spent months building tools for AI agent accountability, and one pattern keeps emerging. The agents aren't the problem — they're mirrors. They amplify what was already there. The Acceleration Problem When a junior engineer writes bad code, the cost is contained. T
