Restricting AI tools in development work is pointless. However, the person using them should still be smarter than those tools. They should use the tools to boost their own efficiency.

In ask people to describe me the code they are going to write verbally. Or reason through an algorithm verbally. Depending on the role, I sometimes start with FizzBuzz, with a spoken answer.

They can use a notepad. They can take time to think. But they will get "why" questions and need to understand the code or constructs they suggest.

This feels safe from ChatGPT, at least for the moment.
