I used AI. It worked. I hated it (taggart-tech.com) AI

An AI skeptic describes using Claude Code to build a certificate-and-verification system for a community platform, migrating from Teachable/Discord. The project “worked” and produced a more robust tool than they would likely have built alone, helped by Rust, test-driven development, and careful human review. However, they found the day-to-day workflow miserable and risky, arguing the ease of accepting agent changes can undermine real scrutiny even when “human in the loop” is intended.
