Technical Debt
If you’ve made sustainable decisions and developed good patterns, LLMs can amplify those. If you’ve made poor technical decisions, LLMs will propagate that technical debt.
Technical debt accumulates when people just "glob on" one more thing to an existing bad technical decision.
We chicken out and ship 1 story point, not the 10 it would take to tidy up.
LLMs encourage this even more. See thing, make more of thing. Early choices get copied.
