Summary

Harnessing AI power while maintaining code quality requires well-structured requirements, appropriate guard rails through tools, file-based keyframing, and time-tested practices combined with human experience, enabling AI-assisted development within technological and architectural comfort zones.

Key Points

  • Providing well-structured requirements, implementing appropriate guard rails through tools, and using file-based keyframing enables harnessing the power of AI while maintaining code quality and architectural integrity.
  • Time-tested practices and human experience with these practices are more valuable than ever in the age of AI-assisted development.
  • Using coding assistants like Cursor is already daily business when working on main applications within the team's technological and architectural comfort zone, but caution is needed when working on unfamiliar tech stacks.
