I agree, but purists can be their own worst enemy. Prompting is still a bit of an art, but I’m sure it’ll get better. Still, seems silly to not leverage one of the greatest tool upgrades we’ve seen in decades. There’s plenty of interesting problems to solve, why waste time on the boring parts anymore?

Don’t get me wrong — I think this’ll be the end of MANY jobs within almost every field in the next decades, ours included. But I sure as shit can’t beat it, so may as well join it and get something out of it before I become just a commodity.

Everybody here HN know how to write but not everybody submit quality posts/comments that get thousands of upvotes. The same dynamics will apply to a society where everybody can code. The prize for being in the % top coders will only increase.
Oh yeah I agree, I'm a heavy user. Not just programming, I talk to this thing about almost anything to see what it has to say.
