Over half of all tech industry workes don't know how to use AI, I guess? I'm sure there's some percentage of people whose jobs are advanced enough that AI will not help there, but I bet my kidney that it's not more than half.

10-20 years ago boomers scoffed at people who used Google instead of reading manuals or figuring it out by themselves.

Even though its true. These articles still make me laugh thinking about how they're all written by a popular girl in class when the new prettier girl shows up. Sure Becky, we get it, Kelly dated a 38 year old and snorts like a pig when she eats.

Yeah, and my moms a tech worker, and just tried ChatGPT for the first time today. I wouldn’t go listening to her opinion on the topic, but she’d also not offer it with no knowledge or experience of it.

It's very overrated, and devs out there, if you are using it, the rest of us can tell, and not in a good way.

Edit: Some of you guys are really butthurt, and it's fairly amusing. I'm sure the guys like you I work with who produce unusable code would also be butthurt if I said that to them.
