It's 2026. Not using AI is deliberately hobbling yourself. You won't be able to produce as good code, nearly as fast.

> You won't be able to produce as good code

This says more about you than anything else. You weren't able to produce good code before AI, and you are not producing good code after AI.

Using AI is cognitive surrender. It's not your code, it's not your work.

Using typewriters is surrender!

Not your handwriting, not your work!

		If you can't see why your analogy is deeply broken I honestly don't know what to do for you.

		I use AI all the time for coding, but a tool that non-deterministically reaches potentially a different output than I would have produced myself is not analogous to typewriters.

		I think it's pretty telling that the only response techbros have to that is some form of false equivalence, every single time.

Using automated looms or wearing textiles woven by it is cognitive surrender. It's not your fabric, it's not your work.
