When AI tools generate code at speed, developers accumulate a debt that doesn't appear in any linter or code review — comprehension debt. Unlike traditional technical debt, which is visible in the codebase, comprehension debt lives in the gap between the system that was built and the team's actual understanding of it. This episode examines what comprehension debt looks like, why it compounds faster than technical debt, and what experienced builders do differently to keep their AI-assisted systems governable over time.
