Software Developers Say AI Is Rotting Their Brains
https://developers.slashdot.org/story/26/05/13/1949225/software-developers-say-ai-is-rotting-their-brains
Developers talk not just about how the AI output is often flawed, but that using AI to get the job done is often a more time consuming, harder, and more frustrating experience because they have to go through the output and fix its mistakes. More concerning, developers who use AI at work report that they feel like they are de-skilling themselves and losing their ability to do their jobs as well as they used to.
