> Not everyone is going to be able to use AI as just a tool. The reality I have seen is that AI has sped the time-to-pr up for those who don't care what they ship, so that gets baked into estimates and expectations.

> Eventually those working carefully with AI will be like the carpenter still using hand tools while the shop is operating CNC machines. The business can't afford the craftsmanship, no matter how right the craftsman is to point out that their work is better.

The analogy doesn't work. CNC machines can be faster and better than a guy with hand tools. AI isn't like that.

What you need is some other race-to-the-bottom situation, because that's what AI is.
