AI has already made art, music, YouTube, the internet as a whole, the written word, customer service interactions, amazon, google, and the environment objectively and irrefutably worse so it doesn't seem like a stretch that it also fucks up programmers.<p>It's doing a fantastic job of addicting people to social media even more and selling them cheap Chinese garbage though!
Alternative framing: were we already worse programmers, and AI assistants spitting our own collective bugs back at us are helping us by revealing that?
