    I think the policy was made in good faith to stop vibe coded apps from being added, but there are actual developers using AI to speed up development. It can help fill in with weaknesses that slow developers down.

      No no no no…

      You don’t want AI replacing devs where they’re “weak”. That is literally the worst thing you can do with AI. All that does is mean the devs aren’t qualified to assess and debug those portions of code. The solution to devs being “weak” in an area is for them to gain experience doing that task.

      Some programmers use AI to make boilerplate code they can easily check to save time without much issue. That’s about the only thing you can use AI for in software development with little risk without taking up excessive time checking/fixing what it shits out.
