Actually it's quite useful information. As soon as I see another useless "ai coded" project I immediately stop reading/caring about it. Fuck your slop code. Nobody wants that shit.

Youre already using it in countless applications, and enjoying the fruits of it. You and everyone else wants it and will have it and will be better off for it, despite your performative chafing.
Fuck off. No, I'm not using it. No, I'm not enjoying it.

The only thing performative around here is all you assholes evangelizing this worthless shit.

Haha. Half of the apps you use are being coded by AI now. Get over it and calm down. You should keep emotions out of your technological opinions.
I'm getting really tired of you guys, the same as with the crypto idiots years ago. No rational thought, only smug comments about how progressive you are and the others are luddites.
It isn't smug to point out that most applications are made/maintained by developers who leverage agentic CLI tools. Just reality, like it or not
This is exactly the attitude I'm talking about.

I'm getting really sick of this. I've had to deal with it in the AI art world for three years now (where actual practitioners are using the AI tools - big surprise, right?) Now it's finally seeping into software engineering.

This is a useless opinion. Most employers will only hire for AI coding now. Most code will be AI generated.

You need to start focusing on how you can create value in the new world. We aren't dealing with punch cards anymore.

If "junk code" pisses you off so much, you ought to look at your own DNA.

I create value the same way I always have.

Meanwhile people are creating garbage with "ai" tools. I wish them the best of luck with their shit.
