> AI writes unarchitectes code if you don't have a system for developing and maintaining a consistent architecture over time (...)

I work at a ~15y old codebase; guess that the famous "architecture" is - a glue of half-baked solutions, unfinished ideas and inconsistencies. Recently I discovered there are 6 different ways used to create audit trails in the app. The "human memory" lives until person decided to switch job or is fired. Then the next person re-invents the wheel and cycle continues.

I suggest taking an honest look at "the architecture" people are so proud of - you might realize there is not much moat there after all. But then again - I mostly write cruds - so that's probably core of the problem, lol
