alt Hacker NewsThis is the attitude of someone who uses hand tools when power tools are available. Yes you loose the personal touch but also loose the potential efficiency. Still need to measure twice and cut once though.

I don't like your analogy because there are good reasons for amateurs not to use the power tools (for real-world crafting). They are expensive and you can hurt yourself easier. This is very unlike using AI to help you build something faster.

Loose vs lose. Ask the llm
I don't think this analogy really works. A power tool would be a programming language with a better set of abstractions, or a good library that solves a hard problem.
AI is like delegating to a junior programmer that never learns or gets better.
