Very good points, a reply to a CEO who wondered why his engineers were resistant to using LLMs for coding:

Senior engineers are typically early adopters of genuinely useful
technology - they're usually the first to embrace new tools, frameworks,
and approaches that make their work more effective. If your most
experienced engineers are resistant to Al while leadership is
enthusiastic, that suggests a few possibilities:
1. The Al tools being pushed might not actually solve real problems the
engineers face
2. There could be legitimate concerns about code quality, security, or
technical debt that Al introduces
3. The engineers might be seeing downsides (like Al-generated code that
looks good initially but creates maintenance headaches) that aren't
immediately visible to non-technical stakeholders
Senior engineers’ reluctance toward Al adoption would make me want to
dig deeper into their specific concerns.
