Makes sense I guess. A senior already knows what the possible approaches are, and knows the correct terminology. They will be able to give a much more precise prompt, and a better review.
A junior needs to figure stuff out for themselves, and that's good.
Personally I avoid AI because it's just more enjoyable to write code than to review and change it.
Enjoying solving the puzzle enjoyers vs "Let's go gambling" vibe coders.
FYI, the title is shamelessly clickbaity. The actual blog goes into more detail about their survey and some of the alleged pros and cons of using AI coding tools.
...concluded the "AI"
