There isn't a bunch of managers metaphorically asking people if they're using vim enough, and not so many blog posts proclaiming vim as the only future for building software

I’d argue that, if we accept that AI is relevant enough to at least be worth checking, then dismissing it with minimal effort is just as bad as mindlessly hyping the tech.

You must be new here. "I use vim between", "you don't use vim, you use Visual Studio, your opinion doesn't count" is a thing in programming circles.
