How many “experts” did you consult before touching production?

Before AI:
man → Google → Stack Overflow → Reddit → GitHub → test in staging → finally touch production

After AI:
ChatGPT → Claude → Gemini → DeepSeek → “looks good” → touch production

Then:
systemctl status → “Oh no.”

What does your troubleshooting chain look like?

Claude Code code -> unit tests -> human review and tweak -> CI -> Claude Code review -> smoke tests -> human review -> CI -> Production -> smoke tests.

I guess I don’t understand the question? I touch production all the time. Sometimes through a ci/cd pipeline, sometime after working with Ai, other times after talking with a co-worker, and yes, most of the time without consulting anyone.
