Said on Talking Postgres with Claire Giordano

“Our build farm, for example, has done just fine until AI agents showed up, and suddenly you need to optimize it in a whole different way, because they're not following the rules. The good old robots.txt that you'd put on a site to tell search engines what they're allowed to do: none of the AI systems care about that. So now you need to put more defenses in place.” — Magnus Hagander, Talking Postgres with Claire Giordano

“Don't just have an AI agent write your patch and send it in. When people who are reviewing the patches look at it, they see that's the case, and they're going to lose interest. … You don't want to put yourself in a position where the senior developers, as soon as they see a patch come in from you, think: oh, I don't want to review something that Claude wrote.” — Magnus Hagander, Talking Postgres with Claire Giordano
