okay, but again: if you say in your blog that those are "facts", then... show us the facts?

You can't just hand-wavily say "a bigger percentage of programmers is using AI with success every day" and not give a link to a study that shows it's true

as a matter of fact, we know that a lot of companies have fired people by pretending that they are no longer needed in the age of AI... only to re-hire offshored people for much cheaper

for now, there hasn't been a documented sudden increase in velocity / robustness for code, a few anecdotical cases sure

I use it myself, and I admit it saves some time to develop some basic stuff and get a few ideas, but so far nothing revolutionary. So let's take it at face value:

- a tech which helps slightly with some tasks (basically "in-painting code" once you defined the "border constraints" sufficiently well)

- a tech which might cause massive disruption of people's livelihoods (and safety) if used incorrectly, which might FAR OUTWEIGH the small benefits and be a good enough reason for people to fight against AI

- a tech which emits CO2, increases inequalities, depends on quasi slave-work of annotators in third-world countries, etc

so you can talk all day long about not dismissing AI, but you should take it also with everything that comes with it
