What you are doing is the coding equivalent of not reading the manual on a new appliance. It will work, but you will get surprised. Probably not in a good way.
That is the argument many make but it is assuming that any issues that come up AI will not be able to help which is just not true. I have a top rated, multiplayer VR app and I have not written code for it for 2 years now as AI does it all. Sure issues have come up, but AI can fix as long as you guide it correctly.
But you wrote the bulk of the code 2 years ago? If so you know 90% of the manual.
