I think this sort of thing happens in software engineering a lot… it doesn’t matter whether genAI tools are the right solution to a problem. Billionaires are throwing an alarming amount of money at this, so they are basically trying to get a slice of that pie by virtue signaling that they love genAI, even if they don’t think it’s that valuable.

My employer wants features delivered, I don’t have time to circlejerk about genAI.
