> It sounds like someone saying power tools should be outlawed in carpentry.
I see this a lot here

Copyright law, education, just the sheer scale of things changing because of LLMs are some things off the top of my head why "power tools vs carpentry" is a bad analogy.
Writing code has never been the limiting factor, it's everything else that goes into it.
Like, I don't mind that there's a bunch of weekend warriors out here building shoddy gazebos and sheds with their brand new overpriced tools, incorrecting each other on the best way to do things. We had that with the bitcoin and NFT bros already.
What I do roll my eyes at is when the bros start talking about how they're totally going to build bridges and planes and it's gonna be soooo easy to get to new places, just slap down a bridge.
Uh huh. Y'all do not understand what building those actually entails lol.
Sure, replace me with AI, but I better get royalties on my public contributions. I like many other developers have kids and other responsibilities to pay for.
We did not share our work publicly to be replaced. The same way I did not lend my neighbour my car so he could run me over, that was implicit.
