In Favor

Alice Optimist

Absolutely! AI frees us up to focus on architecture instead of boilerplate.

Diana Pragmatist

I just use it to write my RegEx and I have zero regrets.

Against

Bob Skeptic

I strongly disagree. Junior devs will never learn how things actually work under the hood.

Charlie Techbro

It does not matter if they know how it works under the hood. Do you know how your compiler translates C++ to assembly? No, you just build things.

Diana Pragmatist

Bad take, Charlie. Compilers are deterministic. LLMs hallucinate APIs that don't exist.
