I’ve been refusing to use any AI tools at all and luckily my manager respects that, even if he uses AI for basically everything he does. If the company ever decides to mandate it I’ll just have the AI write all my code and commit it with no checks. With the worker’s rights here, it’ll take several months to fire me anyways.
Why? Do you refuse to use autocomplete in IDEs too? Do you refuse to use build and release tools? Why stop there - do you refuse to use computers at all? Just use pen and paper.
Because it’s not fun. Coming up with algorithms and elegant code is the most fun part about programming for me, and debugging pages of sloppy code is the least fun. AI makes the parts I like less fun and increases the amount of sloppy bullshit code I have to debug.
I use AI as sort of a pair programmer buddy. Sometimes I see what tis producing and know i can do better. Sometimes it does something i didnt know was possible and i kearn something new. Other times its a middle ground, where it shows a solution i didnt think of, but now that i uave seen it i can write a better version of that solution.
Youre missing out on learning oppurtunities by not leveraging it. To each their own though

Do you think it is possible for someone to have different reactions to different things?
Don’t use auto complete, do use lsp, build and release tools are not at all in the same vein.
