    so somebody with zero programming skills and therefore zero experience with coding agents deemed AI assisted code such a big problem that they performatively forked a project at an arbitrary point. And they want to maybe maintain it while the whole issue started when the original maintainer said the project is too big to be maintained without assistance.

    what are we doing here?

    I use Claude at work. Every single one of my colleagues uses Claude at work. I don’t think I would’ve gotten anywhere close to where I am in this project without Claude. It’s legitimately helped me learn so much without costing my colleagues time or nerves.

    I don’t care if someone uses AI to code, as long as they critically inspect and review the code it produced.

    I know I’m making myself unpopular with this opinion, but this is the reality in a lot of companies. The productivity boost it gives is just unreal

      This. People are quick to forget it’s a tool. I know it’s causing problems in the market with a lot less positions for juniors, but I strongly believe it’s temporary. Management will learn it’s not a magic wand(the hard way if needed), and things will get back to normal.
