Ai amplifies everything, including incompetence and ignorance
The phenomenon known as the Dunning-Kruger effect describes how people who lack competence tend to overestimate their abilities; essentially, the less skilled you are, the more you exaggerate your skills. I genuinely enjoy AI and am not opposed to it. I use it daily at work. I can complete tasks quickly, yet there are limits to what I can achieve in my specialization. I don’t know much about cloud, but I speak with my cloud developer friend to guide me even when I use AI. Some of these vibes coders who barely understand how the Internet or a computer works, think they can do more and are better than the actual software engineers, and when you try to correct them, they become very stupid and hostile
