"treating it as a learning opportunity" You can learn to pay me, or you can learn the consequences of refusing to pay me. It's your choice of learning opportunity! ;)
Developers talk to LLMs. Managers tell the developers to talk to LLMs. CEOs tell the managers to tell the developers to talk to LLMs. The longer the chain, the higher you are in the company hierarchy.

If you assign speed-based KPIs to everything, you will get both the good speed and the bad speed.
Why would companies accept AI generated code, it they can generate their own (and review the prompt)? It's like predicting that when compilers become more popular, accepting binary contributions will become the default.
This makes sense. AI contribution is basically just "prompt + AI work". Even if you are okay with AI work per se, you should accept prompts (after reviewing them) and let your own AI generate the code (and then also…

Hopefully you are renting your intelligence to the company, not selling it. (Unless the job gets you burned out, in which case it was selling indeed.)
I agree, especially the juxtaposition of "we have still have no idea how all of this is going to work when the dust settles" and "hype". If we don't know, then there is a chance it isn't a hype. For example, now it may…

Yeah, it's easier to do the difficult and boring stuff when it's actually easy and interesting for you.

That's why the social networks don't want to talk about the bots, but they are happy to have them.
The customers these days are willing to pay for programs full of bugs that require enormous amounts of resources, so the craft no longer generates profits.
But it also depends on the organization. If your managers love to micro-manage, you will be paid to do things, because someone else believes they know better than you.
