Lol! Losers. I've been programming for almost two decades and extensive use of AI hasn't compromised my skills AT ALL! These slop machines can't hope to compete with the quantity and magnitude of subtle bugs I write. My code was terrible long before I made bots have mental breakdowns trying to work with it.
AI also gives you the benefits of a middle manager. If everything works as intended you take the credit but if something breaks that's not your fault, AI made the mistake. If they try to put the blame on you just say you have 6 agents working on 6 different domains all cross-reviewing their commits and you can't be expected to review every single line of code yourself. Time to play corporate like a damned fiddle!
It really is like having your own personal trainee.
If it only could make coffee.
Saved me a paragraph there.
