I need to write a blog post about it, but TL;DR: I generally agree with #

AI changed the whole development paradigm, the way how we code and how we interact with our products. Again, it does *not* mean you don't have to use your brain, verify the code, craft difficult stuff on your own. It means only that you can delegate boilerplate or parts you don't want to write on your own to that virtual junior that would do it for you and, — most importantly, — *with* you.
Interesting thing is that I said the same harsh words when my mother who worked as an assistant at the university, asked when covid started: "Everyone needs now to use Zoom, Teams and other online tech because of the quarantine. What if a professor, a really good one, is technophobic and cannot use this, they are used to paper and offline, and they have no mobile phone nor a computer even?"
and I said literally this: "Either they embrace the tech, or get out of the career".
I feel it's just the same: every invention going from printing (and maybe even backwards in history) to automobile, to telephone, to computer, and now to AI, always got such reactions by people who didn't want to embrace new tech.
