Better: accessibility implementation. We build AnveVoice (anvevoice.app) — a voice AI agent that takes real DOM actions on websites. AI made it possible to support 50+ languages including 22 Indian languages with sub-700ms latency. Without AI, building that kind of multilingual voice interaction layer would have taken years and a massive localization team.
Worse: patience with manual testing. Once you've seen AI-assisted testing catch edge cases in seconds, going back to manually clicking through flows feels painful. The tradeoff is real — you ship faster but your instinct for methodical debugging atrophies.
The honest answer is AI amplifies whatever habits you already have. If you were thorough before, AI makes you thorough AND fast. If you were cutting corners, AI just helps you cut them faster.
