> I haven't seen a single "AI evangelist" address any concerns and limitations

You see what you choose to focus on. I come across many people who are excited about the possibilities of AI-assisted coding, who are frustrated by its limitations, who share strategies for overcoming or avoiding those limitations, and s on. For a concrete and famous example, I would put Andrej Karpathy in this category. Where are you looking that you're not finding any of these people? linkedin?

In my experience the people who are excited about ai assisted coding are people who aren't good at coding in the first place and don't care about quality, consistency, or understanding what they are having it write, and people who have a vested interest in ai coding tools being used (leadership who want to say "my team uses ai" and "ai experts" who have a personal brand dependent on ai being successful)

The user you're replying to has made many similar posts like this. I previously tried engaging in good faith. I try not to fall into the XKCD 386 trap now, my time is better spent with Claude Code. Hope I can help save you some time too!

Yes, I try to avoid the evangelism topics but they're much worse than blockchain and are taking up most of HN now.

Can't help but click sometimes, always see the same arguments, so why not post the same thing as well?

By the way, I never check user names, I just reply to the post content.
