Ask HN: Do you feel comfortable admitting that you use AI?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49346906AI took the industry by storm, and naturally this generates a lot of resistance. The way I see this resistance expressing itself is in the form of certain feeling of superiority by those who refuse to use it, and a feeling of shame when admitting to using AI assistance for writing code.However, I would argue (even though I have no data back this claim up) that most developers either choose to use it or are required by their employers. I can't predict the future, so I don't know if this is an ASM vs. C kind of moment, or if those giving in to the convenience will regret it years down the line when their skills atrophy.Me personally, I use it and I feel more productive than ever. That said I can't help but feeling a bit of shame when admitting that. Hearing so many people say that AI-generated code is unusable and fixing it takes longer than writing it by hand, makes me wonder if they are working on a very specific field or I just have skill issues. Or maybe both.How much AI are you usin
