Theres a forming deeply uninformed / misinformed loud group of people who desperately want to hate on AI being used for anything, even in scenarios where its actually perfectly good at its job.

Even when extremely seasoned professionals with waaaay more experience are stating "its a perfectly fine tool" these folks somehow cannot wrap their head around the possibility someone like fucking Linus Torvalds might know better than them.

Imagine having the utter balls to assert you know better than Torvalds about whether a technology is good or not 😐

Meanwhile those of us actually in the field have known for over a year now that the tools are pretty good now and very useful.

    To be fair, many have had their workplace enshittified by AI, or managers with AI psychosis.

    Or fired over it.

    Maybe they have family that’s gone down the ChatGPT rabbit hole. I do.

    …I think it’s understandable for people to be pissed, and take an absolutionist position, as the leads who see it as a tool seem to be few and far between.

    Blaming AI for this, instead of the shitty people who made the decisions, is still very dumb.

    I agree that aforementioned companies/managers/etc are shitty.

    Thats not AIs fault lol, and isn't a reflection of it.

    Blaming AI as tge issue is just kneejerk mob mentality.
