I think people are too polite to call shitty programmers out on being shitty. It's probably not a fair assumption, but whenever I see someone admit they use some AI coding tool, I immediately assume they're either a junior, or one of those people who just were never intelligent enough to be a good developer, and ended up getting filtered into some low skill web dev job. Those are the kinds of people who probably feel threatened by AI, and I feel are more likely to use it.

We need to make elitism and public shaming cool again.
