    Agreed. I’m with you it should be treated as a basic tool not something that is used to actually create things which, again in my current line of work, is what many places have done. It’s a fantastic rubber duck. I use it myself for that purpose or even for tasks that I can’t be bothered with like creating README markdowns or commit messages or even setting up flakes and nix shells and stuff like that, creating base project structures so YOU can do the actual work and don’t have to waste time setting things up.

    The hate can be overblown but I can see where it’s coming from purely because many companies have not utilized it as a tool but instead thought of it as a replacement for an individual.
