That's literally the kind of behavior that sparked the Luddite uprising.
And it's why you should not collaborate when being asked to train "AI" at work.

Code with Me or for Me? How Increasing AI Automation Transforms Developer Workflows
Valerie Chen, Ameet Talwalkar, Robert Brennan, Graham Neubig
arxiv.org/abs/2507.08149

Four in five developers use AI tools in their workflow in 2025
—a portion that has been rapidly growing in recent years.
That said, "trust in the accuracy of AI has fallen from 40 percent in previous years to just 29 percent this year."
The disparity between those two metrics illustrates the evolving and complex impact of AI tools like GitHub Copilot or Cursor on the profession.
There's relatively little debate among developers that the tools are or oug…

"When developers are allowed to use AI tools, they take 19% longer to complete issues—a significant slowdown that goes against developer beliefs and expert forecasts. This gap between perception and reality is striking: developers expected AI to speed them up by 24%, and even after experiencing the slowdown, they still believed AI had sped them up by 20%."

About fucking time... Android finally doing proper DHCPv6. When this is live on my phone I can turn off SLAAC, and not have Windows insist on using it (yes, there's meant to be ways to stop Windows from using SLAAC, so it only uses DHCPv6, but I never saw any of them work). *I* don't want 'random' addresses, I want predictable ones for firewalling and ACLs:

Software innovation might be freezing in place—and AI could be to blame. Theo Browne points out that Copilot and ChatGPT often return React-style code even for Solid or Elixir projects. Why? Because they’ve seen React a million times more. Python 3 took a decade to overtake Python 2. If that transition had to happen today, would our dependence on AI suggestions keep us from making the jump?

Hey Andrew,

I'm looking for an experienced C++ developer specializing in Windows reverse engineering/ security research. We need someone proficient in DLL injection, function hooking, disassembly analysis, and Windows internals.

The role involves injecting DLLs into poker clients, hooking Win32 functions, intercepting packets and Ul events, and developing automation tools. We've built a poker solver and are …

From my LinkedIn post: “Telling your dev team to use AI coding tools is like telling your 2010 ops team to use AWS. They didn’t know how to code, they were ticket and click-it VMware people… developers who don’t have product management mindset or have never managed a dev team will fail by trying to micromanage the output of the tool rather than specifying the outcome of the product and managing the agent team to deliver that outcome.”

I’ve been discussing some agent swarm based development work on LinkedIn. So far it’s going well, I’m figuring out how to get the results I want from the tools. As I say there, it feels more like managing a team of experienced product managers and developers (which I’ve done a few times in my career) than doing developer work faster.
