I wish my esteemed co-workers would understand one thing:

As a software developer, I'm not averse to #automation on the job:

Automation on my terms.

Now they're being told "genAI" is just more of the same.

But that's a fallacy.

Because it's (faux) automation on the terms of the bosses.

So the (unabashedly top-down!) introduction of "ai assistants" isn't in the tradition of a quest for more efficient tooling at all.

It's the polar opposite.

It aims squarely to reduce your leverage and your skillset, and therefore your wages and working conditions.
