    I swear, no one reads the username they’re replying to lmao.

    I didn’t say any of that. I’m not the one that made the original comment that started this thread, I’m not arguing with any straw men. I’m just some guy several comments deep in the thread that decided to contribute.

    No one said AI can do absolutely everything soup to nuts.

    Yes they did, there’s an entire “vibe coding” industry based on non-developers using AI to write (shitty) software from start to finish. All kinds of software and tech companies are encouraging more and more AI use because they believe AI can write software from the ground up. This article is a direct response to those people.

      You’re right I did not check the usernames, sorry.

      And I happen to work at one of those tech companies and am bombarded daily by AI. But it is very much understood as a tool for software engineers to use, not a wind up miracle machine that just does everything. That is an overhyped exaggeration of how it’s actually seen and used.
