> Can we please now normalize AI usage in development?
1. It is already normalized outside of a tiny, but very vocal bubble that lives mostly on Bluesky (sometimes also on Reddit/HN/Mastodon).
2. I don't think that even the most staunch AI hater would object to using AI for security research as long as all the artifacts (code, docs) that were produced based on the research are human-written. "Yes, there is a bug in my program, but I refuse to fix it, because I know that you found it using AI" would be a pretty weird position. Not sure, how would you defend it.
I feel like there is a lot of pushback from delusional engineers, that won't accept their coding skills have been rendered useless - so they come up with tons of reasons to avoid AI, because it just has to be bad. Anything to hold up the ilusion you are an well-paid white-collar worker that can pick employers anytime. And I say this myself coding since the late 90s and making a living off it - it is a painful pill to swallow, but the genie does not go back in the box so just accept it and move on.
