Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

As someone else said here, programmers are not a monolith. However, I've seen it multiple times on the job and in social media where programmers are using these tools to write code voluntarily. The code produced is often garbage, and I have to reject it at review time, but there are a lot of programmers using these things willingly.
The point is how arrogant this comic is. There are as many artists using AI as there are programmers. And acting like all programmers are just accepting it to send themselves "to the bread line" and that artists are somehow above that is arrogant, elitist, bullshit.
If a programmer takes AI generated code and uses it without reviewing or correcting it, then that programmer should indeed lose their job.
But nothing wrong with using AI to make a first draft.
