> There are many ways to build for the web, both with and without AI. If AI is a part of your workflow, we think this tool will help make it even more productive. And if it isn’t, that’s OK too.

Crazy thing to say in 2026 where if you write code and not delegate every bit to an agent you're considered a noob by some people.

The opposite was considered two years ago a crazy thing to say. I'm glad this changed and people using ai don't have to hide in the closet anymore for doing so.

When have people using AI to develop ever had to hide in any closet? It's the most public "new hotness" ever.

That’s the point I think. Remember the controversy when Github Copilot came out? Not because where it got its data from, but because people didn’t feel like they wrote code anymore, they just tabbed the autocompleted snippets and was finished with a task in much shorter time.

It wasn't nearly as good 2 years ago.

Which part makes it crazy? The fact that they felt the need to add this disclaimer to try to assuage the fanatical anti-AI contingent?

Like this is specifically a tool for AI-augmented development, and they had to add this "but also, thoughts and prayers for you non-AI people" is incredibly weird, but not in the way you seem to think it is.
