The most surreal thing about AI coding shit taking on is the revelation that so many people who do this thing that I love, seem to have no care for the craft at all. Even people who I would have pointed at, years ago, as those who clearly care. And I know it has always been Just A Job for many people, but holy shit, do you even care a little bit?
We humans are not merely bad at it, we have people who have been doing the work with no desire to be good at it in the first place.

If you don’t like programming, I invite you to do something else with your time instead of promoting the machine that lets you not do it. Some people actually like it, you jerks.

I'm with you 100%. A lot of people are completely showing their asses. Using LLMs to launder stolen code is a clear sign of disdain for the practitioners and people who care about it, regardless if it is a hobby, job or both. To me, it is art, a hobby, and my job, and I'm not using LLMs to replace it in any context. I'm utterly disgusted by the practice honestly. It's all stolen human labor. An LLM has never crafted a single piece of original code, it's not possible.
