@pre@boing.world How about drawing the line at read-only genAI use.
That is, analyze my code, and tell me what to fix, fine.
But don’t gen or drive anything, because that’s a can o’ all kinds of worms.

@simeon@indiehackers.social Is that a good line though? There is so much boiler-plate. A huge amount of programming is basically copying and pasting anyway. How AI does your AI have to be to not just be writing the boiler-plate? As a union drawing a line at which we withdraw work it's a good line. But it will mean lots of fairly pointless minor editing of boilerplate which could otherwise be automated.
