Your argument is in bad faith because you are using false equivalence bias.

I wasn't making an argument. It was a prediction that all major software, (including the major linux distros) will eventually be majority (>50%) AI generated. Software that is 100% human generated will be like getting a hand knitted sweater at a farmers market. Available, but expensive and only produced at very small scale.

  • On what reasoning do you make this prediction? Just because corporations are mandating their employees to use AI right now does not mean it will continue.

    • Any new software developers entering the field from this point on will have to know how to use and be expected to use AI code-gen tools to get employment. Moving forward, eventually all developers use these tools routinely. There will be a point in the future where there is no one left working that has ever coded anything complex thing from scratch without AI tools. Therefore, all* code will have AI code-gen as all* developers will be using them.

      * all mean 'nearly all' as of course there will be exceptions.
