Do you think there’s a chance that the hundreds of thousands or millions of developers - real developers - using these tools, might actually find them useful?
Dismissing everything AI as slop strikes me as an attitude that is not going to age well. You’ll miss the boat when it does come (and I believe it already has).
I think you’ve got to make hay while the sun shines. Nobody knows how this is all going to play out, I just want to make sure I’m at the forefront of it.

That's fine; these boats are coming daily now. I'll catch the next one if I need to.
> You’ll miss the boat when it does come
Is the boat:
1) unmissable since the tools get better all the time and are intelligent
or
2) nearly-impossible to board since the tools will replace most of the developers
or
3) a boat of small productivity improvements?
?
Personally today I think it’s 3.
Eventually I do think it will be 2.
