This is like watching weekend car tinkerers argue with Ferrari mechanics about their tooling. "I'm never going to write code ever again."

Only that it isn't, and that millions of professionals, including myself, use agentic AI successfully to implement high quality software.

That there is no lack of people delivering low quality using AI does not change this.

You don't get the nuance that there are people who enjoy the writing the code part more than they enjoy the handholding and hitting enter on a prompt part. And they write it fast or concise enough to not need to prompt engineer bicker with a machine.

And as soon as an edge case pops up that your model will have never been able to hear about because it hasn't been released publicly, security vuln, whatever, you'll get a "fix" confidently hallucinated at you and be none the wiser.

There's going to be a huge pendulum swing with all the llm zombies and sanewashing it like this isn't helping anyone.

All of this just oozes junior engineer if you're even employed in the field at all.

		I do get that some people enjoy the manual process more than they enjoy building the product. It doesn't give you the right to insult my expertise, and frankly your arguments sound like things that one would make up despite little actual experience using AI to develop software.

Hobbyists are more likely to use IDEs at this point; pros have to get work done.
