This is what happens when you give a new tool to people without educating them on how to use it properly. Problem with AI is that it’s so new to us all it’s difficult to find an authority on the subject.

In my experience it’s useless for fixing bugs or identifying flaws (mostly). That’s still our job, ensuring the code is generated as we intended it to be.

AI tools are most effective when you already know what you want to write, or if you need help finding alternatives to a poor solution you’ve implemented.

This is the new argument from the AI unbelievers “it’s an illusion, it’s imagined, it’s not real, it’s actually SLOWER”.

Then they demand proof that AI is faster which is of course wry difficult to quantify, which the unbelievers say HA! See! You can’t prove it so it’s all fake!
