>7. Much of the opposition to AI is status protection dressed up as principle.

Absolutely true haha, even outside of academia.

Software developers wax poetic about the value of 'handcrafted human-made software', but really they just don't want to lose their cushy $300k WFH job.

They really don't; devs are the highest consumers of AI by far. Designers, on the other hand, have already been obsoleted and exist basically as makework generators. They can put plenty of useless bullshit in figma and have zero ability to execute.
