Swipe left/right

Summary

The article highlights an observation that AI coding tools frequently generate RPC-style endpoints and POST methods, even when RESTful GET requests would be more appropriate. The author questions if this deviation from REST conventions is an intentional design choice by AI, suggesting it might deem strict REST impractical, or if it's merely a byproduct of token efficiency or its training data. This raises curiosity about the underlying reasons for AI's code generation patterns despite advanced models.
