Just FYI, this is the attitude that causes pro-AI people to start shit-talking anti-AI folks as Luddites who need to learn to use the tools.

Agents are a quality/velocity tradeoff (which is often good), if you can't debug stuff without them that's a problem as you'll get into holes, but that doesn't mean you have to write the code by hand.

I enjoy new technology in general, so I very much keep up with the tools and also like using them for the things they do well at any given moment. I'm not among the Luddites, FWIW. I think there's a lot of legitimately great building going on right now.

Note though we're talking about "not reading code" in context, not the writing of it.
