Whatever you believe about what the Right Thing should be, you can’t control it by refusing what is happening right now. Skipping AI is not going to help you or your career. Think about it. Test these new tools, with care, with weeks of work, not in a five minutes test where you can just reinforce your own beliefs. Find a way to multiply yourself, and if it does not work for you, try again every few months.
P.S. I learned that not all of you are developers.
I have used some AI crap to optimize algorithms, but I would never used that for anything else. I strongly believe that AI is like Google. People were full of FOMO, selling it, writing books about search engines, when in reality, you could learn how to use it in a few hours.
OMG Google is so hard you have to spend months to make a proper query. Fuck no, you have to learn how to write a proper sentence. Same shit for AI. The problem is that AI is shit now. It may be useful in a few years, but not now.
