Or your job isn't what AI is good at?
AI seems really good at greenfield projects in well known languages or adding features.
It's been pretty awful, IME, at working with less well-known languages, or deep troubleshooting/tweaking of complex codebases.
This is precisely my experience.
Having the AI work on a large mono repo with a front-end that uses a fairly obscure templating system? Not great.
Spinning up a greenfield React/Vite/ShadCN proof-of-concept for a sales demo? Magic.
Well, there’s your problem. You should have selected React while you had the chance.
