All software has bugs, but right now you have a legacy product in production that works, then you have a rewrite that nobody tested. Do you accepted the risk to yolo it?

Every time something like this has been done on my company I follow up with the question: did anyone watched the code to see if the business logic is the same between the two versions? The answer is: but but but automated testing.

Followup question: did anyone read the automated test suite?

Silence.

The software rewrite is shelved.

AI: "Yes, the specs are perfectly clear and architectural standards are fully respected."

[Imports the completely fabricated library docker_quantum_telepathy.js and calls the resolve_all_bugs_and_make_coffee() method, magically compiling the code on an unplugged Raspberry Pi]

AI: "Done! The production deployment was successful, zero errors in the logs, and the app works flawlessly on the first try!"
