Claiming no dev is going without AI shows a very limited exposure.

On the contrary, I think it is the opposite.

I could well imagine still happily hacking away AI-less on my internal C-projects in my previous tiny 15-people company, with the only connection to the outside being mandatory functional specifications and clear interfaces.

But today, working at a 60k+ SW developer company serving hundreds of different kind of customers, from deep historic brownfield custom device to cutting edge virtualized manufacturing cloud solutions, the gain of using AI is so substantial, you would be totally left behind if you didn't use it.

Integrating your stuff with dozens of existing and upcoming products, written using a plethora of different tools an languages (some even based on Windows ;-) ), especially for rapid prototyping, debugging and system integration testing, the gain is substantial.

And by now the recent tools are even already at a point, where they start to know the fringe stuff in my own Company's extended portfolio better than I myself, despite working 10 years within the company.

Had that exact case just last week:
"Based on the outputs you supplied, it seems you are working on a Docker based realtime xxx image by company yyy. They use tool zzz on the lowest layer to set up containers. The zzz tool's use of SSL can be configured by setting the environment variable GnarglfarzActive=true. You might try it."
What should I say - not only was that correct, I now also knew who to connect to in the company for further support (the developers of mentioned zzz tool, which I had never heard of before).

Insanely impressive in complex environments involving many different projects and people.
