Saying CI is a developer experience thing is completely misunderstanding the point.

AI workflows, vibe coding and such only emphasize the need for proper test suites and for a measured release process, where you don't actually delete your production databases on the whim.

I have to say, sometimes working with AI sounds way harder than just writing the code yourself.

Is the headline here saying that AI experience is trumping Developer experience in a way that’s making developers miserable?

Developer experience was about making developers happy. AI experience is about shortening the loop without loss of safety.
