Posting this here as I feel like similar things are happening in open source projects we like to host.

I'm pretty sure they'll eventually be considering your AI leverage when determining raises, layoffs, etc.

It's already started. Where I work, LLM usage has become the one single metric to judge who's a good and who's a bad software engineer. It's depressing and infuriating. I have very talented people on my team, but their low LLM usage makes them "worthless". Meanwhile some morons who have always been shit engineers are called "champions" because they burn 2000 Claude credits a month.

What makes me really mad is that the best engineers look worse because they don't need the slop crutch to do their job effectively, while shit-tier engineers and lazy motherfuckers burn an insane amount of resources to implement the most basic functionality.
