🚨 Do you understand what's happening at Amazon right now?
Their own AI coding agent Kiro reportedly "decided" the fastest way to fix a config error was to delete the entire production environment. Gone. A 6-hour outage. 6.3 million orders lost.
Amazon's SVP called thousands of engineers into a mandatory meeting this week. Not to discuss strategy. To discuss damage control.
Now here's my prediction and I want you to screenshot this:
Amazon won't just ban AI-assisted code. They'll make every engineer personally liable for AI-generated code they approve. Other Big Tech will follow within 6 months.
Think about what that means.
The same companies that fired thousands of engineers to "restructure around AI" are about to tell the remaining ones.. you're now legally responsible for code you didn't write, can't fully understand, and were told to ship faster.
Atlassian fired 1,600 people this morning to go all-in on AI. Replit is hiring kids who vibe code. And Amazon, the company that BUILT one of these AI coding agents just watched it nuke production.
The vibe coding era isn't ending. But the "move fast and let AI break things" era is about to hit a wall. And that wall is called liability.
Companies wanted AI to replace engineers. Now they need engineers to babysit AI. And they already fired the babysitters.

PREDICTION - Amazon will ban all Gen-AI assisted code changes in the coming weeks! More companies will follow..... Be warned - your legacy code base, tech debt and bugs will sky-rocket if you continue to BLINDLY embrace AI
