> you probably are yourself way too under-skilled to be gainfully employed or not yourself capable of generating similar or better output.
Have you considered the posibilities that "subpar" coding skills are still extremely valuable?
I say this because almost every single extremely high paid engineer that I know at rocketship unicorn startups to FAANG companies are all using AI coding as an essential part of their work flow. Its ubiquitous. And we get paid tons of money.
We aren't just copying an pasting hundreds of lines of code and pushing to prod, of course, but its an invaluable tool for significantly speeding up an engineers coding workflow.
This contradicts your claim, as these aren't need grads, these are all highly paid professionals.
The person I was responding to said this: "to be gainfully employed". Implying that one wouldn't be gainfully employeed if they used these tools all the time.
That seems to be on its face completely untrue. It is arguably the opposite these that's, that you must use these tools else you aren't going to get these prestigious jobs.
