Not everyone has the process and positioning needed to take advantage of AI, so it’s not surprising that some people swear it doesn’t help. But those people need to understand that other people do have the process and positioning and AI is dramatically changing things.

Personally, we’re just beginning to ship faster because we’re a big ship and turn slowly. We’re still getting up to speed but we’re also bogged down with bug fixes, security fixes, and the review bottleneck. Reviews are especially tough now that every commit is much larger because it is now much more correct than the crap we were submitting before AI.

Also, many people are simply lying and hate AI. There are people I’ve encountered who look for any evidence to justify not embracing it. It’s frankly tiring but I understand some people cannot handle change and are frankly terrified of what is happening to their careers and their concept of self-worth.
