Clamping down might be a better choice of words here.

I think what most of the HN set misses is that there is a ton of code being written that they just don't see. It's code that prior to AI never would have existed. That expensive programing resource (this is most of us) doesn't have time to go whip up those time saving scripts for the people in accounting and marketing who need them. And it's not like these people are gonna gab that they saved themselves 3 hours a week with some basic python. They are gonna take that time back and shut up about it.
