alt Hacker NewsNo, the luddite is the person in one bad location on the continuum, opposite the AI psychotic on the other bad end of the spectrum. The person holding everything together is the one applying wisdom to the use of tools for the things they are good at while avoiding the things they are bad at, rather than blindly following one ideology or its opposite.
Sorry, but you're distorting my framing of the term in my original comment.
I labeled the person who uses AI to generate code and uses their brain and wisdom about the system to refine that code as the luddite since they will work slower when compared to other "higher performers" who don't care about the code quality.
In my framing I'm aware that the person is not a luddite per-se, but will look like it since they will be slower while trying to create better code, albeit using AI in the process as well.
Citing myself:
> Any employee who cares about code quality will become a poor performer with a red luddite label because they dare to change what the AI has emitted for them.
