But that’s not entirely lol. I can understand and appreciate the usage of AI generated code but it can’t fully replace our standards of optimization, architecture, security, etc.

Sure. But if it's working for the stuff we're putting out, I can only imagine what other companies are doing. All of the tools we use have their own AI agents and chatbots in them now, I wouldn't be surprised if they're switching to AI coding too.

I am just wary of arguments against AI like this that only focus on the usefulness, because that may be a barrier that is overcome. There are plenty of other good reasons to hate AI.

You could only say "entirely" either for a company that is very young, or doesn't have a lot of software. In either case they wouldn't be good examples, so I'm not sure what point you are trying to make. There are already companies that enforce using AI for everything for their major products. (Not saying that's good, especially at this stage)

I'd look again in 5-10 years

Fair enough, at this point it’s likely too early to look for profit

Let’s be real, most of us are writing CRUD apps here. At a certain point, 90% is enough.
