I say this kindly, but are you sure that _you_ aren't the one in group 2, and _they_ aren't the ones learning new things?

A lot of the discourse around ai coding reminds me of when I went to work for a 90s tech company around 2010 and all the linux guys _absolutely refused_ to learn devops or cloud stuff. It sucks when a lifetime of learned skills becomes devalued over night.

That’s pretty fair, I’m currently in the “trying to get over the feeling that it’s cheating” phase and also just haven’t formed the habit yet of reaching for AI as a tool in my toolbox; particularly in things like pre-review AI-assisted code review, which I’ve found really useful but sometimes don’t think of doing when I could.
