Or worse. I’ve heard stories from friends where leadership expects huge boosts in productivity due to LLMs, and perceive anything but an order of magnitude boost as incompetence or a refusal to adapt.

To be fair, some of it might genuinely be refusal to adapt? If we go by HN comments, there definitely do seem to be at least some people who are letting their hangups prevent them from learning this tech.

> It can't think, it just predicts likely tokens

> I can't believe this industry I once cherished for rational professionalism has fallen for nondeterministism

> Sorry, I'm just not going to participate in destroying the planet with these power hunger DCs

> All this stuff actually costs 10x what a human developer costs but they're dumping the service at a low price to make us dependent.

> It's a bubble, or a scam, in a year or two everything will go back to normal.

Tell me sentiments like these don't get bandied about by devs who want to keep doing things the way they know and like.

		I just don't want to use it. It may or may not be a big deal, I lean toward it not being, but even if it is I would prefer not to use it, so I'm going to resist it as far as possible. I don't pretend it's about any higher principle than me not liking it. I'll wait to get put on a PIP and then I'll do exactly what they ask.
