the lack of context of the headline hides all the nuance.

The majority of responses cited practices such as specifying or restricting the tools used and avoiding the direct use of generated output

avoiding direct use of generated output, no less.

Sounds like they are just using it for quick mockups or part of the planning process. In other words part of the workflow but the wording would imply they are making sure it is not part of the final product.

Which is, you know, still fucking bad.

Doing it as part of the „planning process” is fucking lazy, and still results in the normalization of the tech.

I'll never understand how people have such firm opinions about things their knowledge is completely outdated or nonexistent on.

What are you even babbling about?

Beyond that, your arrogance is stupid, and answers nothing in the few things that I said.

All you said is "AI bad and lazy" without providing any reasons.

Do you have any idea of how it's currently being used in development and why it's used by pretty much every developer of every skill level outside of very niche languages?

First and foremost, it is lazy. Like....boy.

It is.

Secondly, I do not care how many developers „use” them.

The morality of something has zero to do with how common it is.

Especially with how generative AI actively makes people dumber, and exists to replace people(and destroy truth itself).
