I am not the one being unoriginal here. You are thinking that AI will obsolete critical thinking, so there's no point developing with it.

However, in your moral crusade against using AI you are missing the big picture. No one is making you code with AI. But there are many things that you can only build if you use AI as a component.

The ability to plug a human-like decisionmaker into anything, anywhere massively expands what we can build. There are applications and use cases that you cannot even conceptualize without having the ability to plug AI in. This does not impacting critical thinking whatsoever.

Be original. Put your engineer hat on and think on what this new tool lets you build, that you couldn't beforehand.
