My coworkers are all AI pilled and it's driving me crazy.

I hate the illusion of productivity they get by spamming slop code out. They keep sending shit all over the codebase that I then have to deal with and fix when it keeps breaking all the time, interrupting my work. I get less done because I have to clean up after the LLM, and they get to say look how many pull requests I put out. One of them said something along the lines of "[llms] will make programming a lot faster, at the possible cost of somewhat lower code quality" and I'm just like... Code quality is what sets us apart from other places. It used to be that we cared a great deal about making our codebase clean and maintainable. Code readability and sound engineering practices were more important in most cases even than actual performance (by which I mean, if there's a choice between a slightly faster-running way to write something, and an easier to understand for the reader way to write it, you almost always go with the latter unless there's a strong reason). Now that's been flipped on its head. We're all supposed to be bot wranglers unconcerned with the how of what the robots are doing so long as it works. We are institutionally invested in the automated creation of tech debt. I fucking hate this shit so bad, but in software engineering I legitimately am afraid we never will get rid of these fucking things because software dipshits love them and so do the bosses. I am pretty much the only one I know of that I work with who hates it.
