Did You Really Build That App? AI Imposter Syndrome

You fire up Claude or Codex, build a working app in a weekend, and people might even pay for it. Then a voice creeps in: "But you didn't really write the code. Who are you to charge money for this?" This episode tackles both sides of AI-assisted building — the objective "how do I know this thing is actually production-ready" question, and the psychological hurdle of feeling like a fraud when the heavy lifting was done by a language model. Corn and Herman walk through a concrete pre-rollout QA checklist for AI-built apps, discuss why effort heuristic makes us devalue easy wins, and explore the difference between typing semicolons and delivering value.
