I'm not saying it's the same as working with a jr developer. I'm saying that not using something less skilled than yourself for less skilled tasks is stupid and self defeating.
Yes, when someone builds a straw man you ignore it. There is a huge canyon between never use AI in engineer(op proposal) and only use AI for all your engineering(op complaint).
There's a very good argument for not using tools vended by folks who habitually lie as much as the AI vendors (and their tools). I don't want their fingers anywhere in my engineering org, quite honestly. Given their ethics around intellectual property in general, I must assume that my company's IP is being stolen every time a junior engineer lazily uses one of these tools.
I'm sure you never use any Google or Microsoft products at all, such as Google Search, Maps or Android, and none of the companies and engineering teams you've ever worked with have used such products, given how habitually they lie (and the fact that they're two major AI vendors).
If so, congratulations for being old or belonging to the 0.01%. Good luck finding a first job where that holds in 2025.
