Right now, AI tools are being pitched as an aide to software development, but the grand vision AI companies are pushing is one in which AI interaction /replaces/ consumer-facing software. I'm not sure professional developers have really grappled with what that entails.
AI companies don't want to help you build better software. They want to replace your software. And where does that leave you?
@lrhodesL. Rhodes ⁂ From personal talks with colleagues (I am devloper) I know that they simply don't think that far ahead. It's just a whole lot of shiny new tool syndrome and productivity circle jerking, and zero grasp for the fact that AI is fundamentally a tool of oppression, built on *even more* oppression.
