Comment on New Junior Developers Can’t Actually Code.

This post is literally an ad for AI tools.
No, thanks. Call me when they actually get good. As it stands, they only offer marginally better autocomplete.
I should probably start collecting dumb AI suggestions and gaslighting answers to show the next time I encounter this topic…

It’s actually complaining about AI, tho.

There are at least four links leading to AI tools in this page. Why would you link something when you complain about it?

Oh lol I thought it was a text post, I didn’t even click the link and just read the post description.

The “about” page indicates that the author is a freelance frontend UI/UX dev, that’s recently switched to “helping developers get better with AI” (paraphrased). Nothing about credentials/education related to AI development, only some hobby projects using preexisting AI solutions from what I saw. The post itself doesn’t have any sources/links to research about junior devs either, it’s all anecdotes and personal opinion. Sure looks like an AI grifter trying to grab attention by ranting about AI, with some pretty lukewarm criticism.

to play the devil’s advocate: this can be done to exemplify what you complain about as opposed to complaining about an abstract concept
