The future of LLM ingrained development feels spooky to me.. Does your company support the use of cursor for full fledged feature implementation from requirements? Honestly this scares me.. I wouldn’t know how to stand behind what I worked on or troubleshoot it.

Riddle me this... what's the difference between having AI generated code and something written by a junior dev (no offence meant).

Ultimately you want 3 outcomes from code as a tech lead or higher (seniors even preferably)

1. Tests that confirm requirements.

2. A clear architectural mental model of the system that's built.

3. Clear interfaces so you can integrate systems easily.

If you're not confident start with smaller pieces (even a single function ir object) and define the interface structs etc. manually. Then get it to fill in the blanks. After 3 days go up 1 step of detail and give it less info. Build your trust in it.

Meanwhile it helps if you have good examples of structures and testing details you want.

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam. The CFE review course was enough and like if you get a question wrong it explains it well so that when it comes up in a different way in the real exam you can still get it. But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!
