Some people are resistant to change and will make irrational and illogical arguments against any change they see as threatening. AI is just one of those.

Personally, I'm still struggling to figure out when I should lean into AI, and when I should do it by hand. At least with coding, for larger changes that I can explain, I try AI first. But, for small "debugging" changes, or changes that I can't explain, I still do those by hand.

Where I'm really stuck is testing; but that's because it's outside of the IDE and I'm afraid that I'll spend more time futzing with the tool then doing what I need to do.
