DEBUGGING WITH AI: CAN IT REPLACE AN EXPERIENCED DEVELOPER?
Summary from the TLDR Dev newsletter
This dev tested Claude on three real React/Next.js bugs ranging from easy to hard. It aced the simple one, half-fixed the medium one (but introduced new issues), and completely failed the tricky one, confidently going in circles with wrong fixes. AI is a great first pass for standard bugs, but knowing when to stop prompting and start thinking is the real skill.
