When you tell the client your AI-powered prototype is "almost done," they see a beautiful Old West town ready for action. Meanwhile, you're looking at a construction site held together by scaffolding, duct tape, and prayers to the TypeScript gods. Sure, the facade looks impressive from the street view, but behind the scenes? It's all exposed beams, missing walls, and architectural decisions that would make any code reviewer weep. That's AI-generated code for you—looks production-ready in the demo, but the moment you peek under the hood, you realize you're basically debugging a half-finished movie set.
