My personal experience is quite the opposite. A junior developer with AI is dangerous, and will produce a large amount of work that isn't well architected and will require substantial review and correction. It is easier for me to leverage coding agents to get shit done than it is to even explain what is needed in terms that a junior can run with.
Call me conservative, but between writing an article against TDD where the main argument was "I don't like the people who do TDD", his opinion on typescript, and the article he wrote on London not being great because it has only 30% whites, I find DHH not really worth listening to. I know, I know, ad hominem, but there's only so much I can read in my life and I have to filter it down somehow. I find that filtering out people who've written a lot of stupid stuff in the past works well for me.
