Shallow learning, overall laziness imprinted on the character over time. For kids and juniors starting the field they are much worse. None of the stuff I've learned over past 20 years was handed over to me in this easy fashion.
Overconfident and over-positive shallow posts just hurt the overall discussion. Also some layer of arrogance - a typical 'if you struggle to get any significant value out of this new toy you must be doing something horribly wrong, look at us all being 100x productive!' which is never ever followed by some detailed explanation of their stack and other details.
Clearly the tools have serious issues since most users struggle to get any sustained reliable added value, and everybody keeps hoping things will improve later due to it being able to write lengthy prose on various topics or fill our government documents.

Yeah, kids these days just include stdio.h and start printing stuff, no understanding of register allocation or hardware addressing modes. 20 years from now nobody will know how to write an operating system.

As compared to "if you claim AI is useful for you, you're either delusional or a shill"? The difference is that the pro-AI side can accept that any specific case it may not work well, while detractors have to make the increasingly untenable argument that it's never useful.
