Oh wow another post from a licker who can't consider the various nuances of this topic.

A production team using tools to automate portions of their workload is not the problem. I would argue we should have another term for these "AI" tools so that we can talk about them without the rightful fury we have towards AI as a whole.

Generative AI is a blight. Vibe-coding is a blight. A large number of people who have not drunk the AI enhanced kool-aid can see this clear as day.

And we arnt even talking about the blight data centers and their out of touch tech overlords are bringing to the conversation; its all entangled.

I dont give a shit if a team wants to use a model to help with certain tasks and then review it by hand before PR. That leaves a human in the middle who presumably understands the output based on their prior experience / years of hard earned knowledge. I also dont care if an artist wants to train a model on their own content to help with content creation, that's a cool use case. Or a model trained on royalty fee / public domain..I can see a use case for this but we still need to weigh that against "could I have provided work for a local artist, programmer, etc." Are we disincentivising these passions by taking away the already limited income sources available.

Anyway I forgot the point I was trying to make, Fuck AI (outside of a few morally acceptable use cases)
