> The gap is widening between engineers who’ve integrated these tools and engineers who haven’t.

This is kind of the fundamental disagreement in the whole discourse isn't it? If you could prove this is true, a lot of arguments stop making sense from the anti AI people, though not all of them. But nobody has proved this. And what is the gap? If the gap is in skill, the AI users are falling behind. If it's productivity, 1. Prove it, 2. is it more in my self interest to be highly productive or to be highly skilled?

Personally, I am already able to work 5 hours a week and convince my boss it's 40, with glowing performance reviews; I am just that productive. And I don't want to use AI. So if you lads can go ahead and gain 8x productivity and make me work a full job to compete, oh well, I should do that anyway.
