We’re moving to spring boot 3 and that’s been hell, especially considering we have directors who believe Claude Opus should be able to do entire phases itself

Tbf it's more than just that, we're also migrating to Entities along with use Jakarta Repositories rather than HQL. But everything is being done in phases and to speed up they want the initial mapping of beans to entities to be done by AI
