The insane AI push is purely driven by fear of being left behind.

No one is actually stopping to ask whether it is all worth it.

I like AI. I think it's great for quick references or a starting point, but I've already seen projects scrapped and restarted because a bunch of junior devs used AI with no understanding and management gave up on them after a year where the number of significant bugs never decreased. Take one down, feed it to the AI, two more bugs in the tracker.

It's changing rapidly, but handing automation tools to people who don't understand the underlying concepts just gets you a bigger mess. There are no well-established best practices for how to use it safely and effectively because it's too new and changing too fast.

It will settle down eventually, but a lot of people will do a lot of dumb things first.
